Hey Friends, I want to jump into your inboxes to share some exciting news.

You might remember a few weeks ago I asked you to fill out a questionnaire about sewing struggles. A lot of you entered to share your experience, I am very grateful for that.

This is one of the questions:

“If there would be a course where you can learn step by step making your own patterns to your measurement easily would you be interested? Would you like to know how to make simple patterns? Would you like to learn the essentials of pattern drafting and to know how to transform patterns to different styles and how to sew them?”

And you know what? Most of you answered Yes and some of you Maybe and nobody (zero person) selected No.

So why do I tell you this now?

Because I am launching my first group of the Buddy Positive Program. I put together this program for a small group of selected people who want to make their own clothes consistently. They let behind the frustration of pattern fixing and focus more on the creation of them. Creating a capsule collection while learning easy pattern making in just a few weeks instead of a few years! It’s my great privilege to share these resources I wish I had when I was just starting out with you today.

You might have seen my course Sew Your Prints here on Skillshare where I show you how to create made to measure patterns online. Tailornova is a fantastic tool to make custom patterns. However, it is not the only tool you can use and also it might be difficult to use for those who have no prior sewing or pattern drafting skills.

In this course you will learn to create made to measure patterns for yourself easily with the best tools available. You will learn how to transform them to different styles and how to sew clothes for you with them. You will learn how to multiply your garments quickly in your wardrobe.

In the first weeks you will design a cohesive capsule collection. Then, you will learn my method on how to make patterns easily. Then, you will learn to make a different garment type every week starting with the pattern. You will make variations and transformations with each pattern and sewing at least one of them. By the end of the course you will have a mix and match capsule collection ready to wear.

Is this program for you? It's for you if:

You have found Tailornova too advanced for you, however you would love to dive in to learn more
you think you are too small, too big, too curvy, too flat, too imperfect for standard sized patterns (side note: you are just perfect)
you are tired of fixing every pattern you purchase
you are getting lost in the intention of figuring out how to draft a pattern from scratch alone
you learned how to draft a bodice block from scratch, but you find it too time consuming to make every time a new one if you want a new dress.
you have awesome ideas, but can't find the right patterns to make them
you are getting lost because you don't have a structured strategy to achieve your goal.
you want to start a handmade collection for selling.

Why is this a Program instead of a class on Skillshare?

Because I want to teach you personally and be there for you when you have doubts. When you don't know which way to go, which fabric to choose, how much ease to use, in which format to print, how to transform that bust dart to a beautiful line. How to sew the different fabric types.

Two Fancy Bonuses

The first bonus will help you make different sizes for your friend, client or your small brand.

The second bonus is about how to make seamless repeat patterns (print designs) without drawing skills to create your own fabric.

How does it sound? Are you in? I have 4 spots available so make sure you won’t miss this out! The group starts on the 15th of February.

The first students can't hardly wait to start so I had to send some homework already

How to apply? Send me an email to hello@agnessomogyi.com with a few words about you and why you think this course would change your life forever and I will tell you the details.
