There's a BIG surprise coming soon!
You've asked (and begged and pleaded!) for us to re-release the Starburst Dress, which was a free pattern given exclusively to subscribers who supported Charm during the first month of our Patreon membership, way back in February 2020.
And while that dress expansion will stay exclusive to those lucky first-month members, we've decided to share just the Starburst Skirt with all patrons who are members during January 2023, as a special thank you. You can make it into a dress with any Lamour series bodice (like I did with the Lana Dress bodice in these new photos!) or make a skirt using the waistband from a Lamour series pattern like the free Charm Circle Skirt.
The Starburst Skirt and video will be sent to all current patrons via Patreon Messages on January 31.
The original dress was released in sizes 2-20, and it's always bothered me that our 18-34 range first-month patrons didn't get to enjoy it. That goes against Charm's values of inclusivity and we now have the resources to offer the Starburst Skirt in our full 2-20 and 18-34 size ranges, so I'm eager to share it with everyone.
Keep your eyes out at the end of the month for this bonus pattern, and thank you for supporting Charm!
xoxo,
Gertie
P.S. The Starburst Skirt will be a Lamour-Series addition, so you can start planning your own Starburst Dresses in all sorts of variations!

And me
Begging for this to be re-released to new members (specifically me)
and me! <3
Hahahahahaha. I became on February member...
I've been a patreon member since 2020 and just checked through all my emails and definitely haven't got an email with the starburst pattern??
Me neither
I wish there was a way to get this Pattern now. 😔 But sadly I discovered Gerties Patreon to late. Cause this would go amazing with the Aurora Bodice for a black widow spider inspired look depending on the fabric used 😁
Same 😭
i really want these straps that would make this perfect, the straps you use in the video
I haven’t received the video and I’ve been a member for several years.
did you check your Patreon mail?
Apparently I joined a few days too late..... ☹️
I got the email and it is an address for a Dropbox. Any ideas on how we are to access it?
Just curious if this has gone out? I've been in the Princess tier for a couple years and I'd love to add this pattern to my collection.
Yes! Please check your Patreon direct messages for one sent on January 31. You'll find the Starburst Skirt pattern there. 😘
Has everyone else gotten their pattern already?
I still don’t have the pattern & I am an inner circle member and have been waiting patiently. Please send the pattern to me!!!!
Yes! Please check your Patreon direct messages for one sent on January 31. You'll find the Starburst Skirt pattern there. 😘
I haven’t received the message with the pattern yet…am I the only one?
No you are not. I have wanted this pattern since I joined in March 2020.

Anticipation is making me crazy! It's already after 3:30pm and no word yet

Thank you so much. I’ve been a member from early on in the first year but missed out on this pattern. I’m so pleased to now have the opportunity to make this beautiful dress. 👗🧵🪡
Woohoo!!!
I am super excited for this! I can not wait!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@Gertie will you be updating the Lamour Dress pattern to include both 2-20 and 18-34 size ranges so that everyone can make this? 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻💗💗💗
Everything will be updated, including the Lamour Dress! In the meantime, you can use any of the other Lamour series bodices like Lana (that's the bodice shown here, not Lamour), Landis, Las Vegas, and the Mariner Top, all of which are available in both ranges.
It's just getting better!
Thank you team Charm!
Best news all week and year!
That is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Such a fun skirt
Is that fabric from mood? It does look really familiar.
No, it's from Sew Much Fabric. I bought the last of this colorway, but she has it in two other colors!
Oh my days, that's fabulous 🤩
Yay!! Thank you so much for this. I love the starburst and was sad I want able to get it.
This has made my day. So excited about this pattern and will definitely be adding it to my queue! 😻
Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much. I kicked my own behind so much for waiting so long to join. Now I am excited to be able to have this as an option!!
Yay! 🤗😍
Can't wait! And that fabric looks very familiar ; )
I appreciate it! The new size block fits me so much better!
Yeeeeeesssss!! 😍😍😍
I can’t wait!!!
