The dress has everything it takes to become your favorite 2021 dress for when we can go out and have fun again!
Crescent Lake Tiered Dress Pattern and Sewing Life 10 will be released on March 23rd, 2021

BEHIND SEWING LIFE

The goal of Sewing Life is to show that YOU are the boss of your look and style. And that YOU - no matter your sewing experience, body shape or size - can feel and look great in self-made garments every day!
When you make your own clothes, you have every opportunity to choose your style, your fit and the quality of the garments. If you know how.
That’s why I wanted to create a magazine with a few patterns that offers styling inspiration, sewing and fitting lessons – all in the same package.
I started publishing the magazine and membership in Danish in 2014. Now that I have been doing this for five years, and we have worked out most of the kinks, it’s time to let the rest of the world join in!
