Marina is ready for Halloween!  Though she joked that it's always Halloween at her house.  I love the bright purple pop of elastic.  She also made a lovely Style C with the waist harness.

Heather used black fabrics as well, making a Style B with mesh insets.  I really like her use of fold over elastic sewn flat.

All of my patterns are tested by sewists across my size range.  Along with clarifying any details in the instructions, my testers help me make sure that my patterns can fit a wide range of bodies, and work in a variety of fabrics and trims. 

Below are some of their lovely creations.

Hellebore Hi-Cut: Tester roundup 2

Hello, sewing friends!  Back again today with the second tester roundup for the Hellebore Hi-Cut panties.  In case you missed it, here is the first tester roundup.

Edyta Jakubczak @edytka86
When Edyta signed up as a tester, she shared with me that she was five months pregnant and wanted to make sure I'd be ok with her testing.  Since I have never been pregnant myself, and don't know much about maternity clothing, I thought why not?  The Hellebore Hi-Cut worked out well for her as far as fit, and I just love the double brushed poly print she used.

Hellebore Hi-Cut: Tester Roundup 1

7/8/2019

Hello, sewing friends! Today I'm sharing with you the first of three tester roundups for the Hellebore Hi-Cut panties.

When I created my first pattern, the Daisy Briefs, I received requests for panties with options for self bands and binding, and also for a back with less coverage.  So I decided to make another basic style panty, this one with high leg openings (you might also know them as French cut), and provide several finishing options.

I love seeing the fun prints and colors that my testers come up with.  Along with checking for a good fit across my size range, my testers provide me with helpful feedback on the instructions and inspiration for new color combinations.  Some of them have such cute and funny knits in their fabric stashes, I'm finding new vendors to shop from.

So, here are the first six projects from my testers:

Hot Pink and black is such a classic combination.  Amanda made up Style B, and it is fun to see what the lace looks like over a print.

I've been a busy bee behind the scenes working on my next pattern.  I realized that while I've been sharing Daisy Briefs tester photos on social media, I forgot to share them here!  Whoops!  So let's get to it, shall we?

Some of my testers have been very prolific and made themselves quite a few pairs of Daisy Briefs, so I'll share those in upcoming posts.
