Lina Piprek | Sketch to Sewing Pattern (Edwardian Shirtwaist!) - Writing a Historybounding Book @LinaPiprek | Uploaded November 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Vlog following the making one of the historybounding sewing patterns for my upcoming book. Starting from finalizing the design to making a wearable mockup of the pattern, I show the behind-the-scenes process of bringing a sewing pattern to life (though it's mostly me being indecisive about design decisions).

The book (and the shirtwaist pattern) is not available for purchase yet – don’t worry, I’ll make a big announcement when it is. If you don’t trust the algorithm gods to show you my announcement, you can send me an email at linapiprekdesign@gmail.com to let me know you want to be added to my mailing list. You’ll receive email updates about pattern releases, early access to patterns via pattern testing, and any other big projects – not about video releases, that’s what YouTube notifications are for 😉

This pattern is amazing, it’s one of my favorite recent additions to my sewing room. I used fabric scraps to stuff mine 😊
