Do I need experience to use your patterns?

No. Every guide and pattern is written for absolute beginners — straight seams, forgiving fabric, and plain-English steps. If you can thread a machine, you can make these.

What do I get when I buy a guide or pattern?

A digital download. After checkout you get an instant, secure download link on the confirmation page and by email. Nothing is shipped.

How long does a project take?

Most patterns are designed for small windows of time — a naptime, an evening, or a weekend morning. Each listing notes the rough time to finish.

What is included in the Sewing Club?

For $15/month you get the prerecorded lesson video library plus the private members community board where you can post project photos and videos and get feedback. Cancel anytime.

How long is a one-on-one lesson?

Lessons are 1 hour and 15 minutes. You pick an open slot on the booking page and get a confirmation email with the time, location, and a cancellation link.

Can I reschedule or cancel a lesson?

Yes. Use the cancellation link in your confirmation email, or email Lex and she'll move you to another open slot.

Can I sell what I make from your patterns?

Yes — you may sell finished items you make yourself. You may not resell, share, or redistribute the pattern or guide files.

What machine do I need?

Any basic home sewing machine that does a straight stitch and a backstitch. No fancy features required.
