As you all finish up testing and submitting feedback today, I just wanted to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. It's always really scary and vulnerable going into a testing group, but you all have been so kind and so helpful. This pattern is 100x better because of your feedback and I could not do this without your support. I am going to launch the pattern tomorrow, November 12th 🥳 I will email you the finished files and a 50% off code that never expires. You can use it on any pattern I currently have and any future pattern I come out with. I know it isn't much, so if there is anything else I can do or any way to support you and your small businesses please don't hesitate to reach out 🙏 It has truly been a joy to see what everyone made. This was such a talented group of people, and I am so grateful for you all. I CAN'T wait to share all your makes tomorrow on launch day!! I'll tag your socials when I do, and make sure to always credit you on any photos I post. If you don't wish to be included or have your photo shared, I totally respect that and have an option on the feedback form where you can mark 'no'. If you do wish to share on your own socials, tag me @laraehandmade! I'll be hitting all the buttons so folks can find you and follow you too. Thank you! I hope to see your names pop up for future test groups 🥰 Danielle

Morning everyone! If you haven't printed, please download the new files and use those. If you have printed: 1. Cut the liner pieces the same size as the Outer. This goes for the pockets as well. 2. Error on the Base pattern piece- only cut 1 of each If you have cut your fabric: Cut your Outer pieces to match your Liner pieces. Your completed bag will be 2cm smaller, but this will avoid you re-cutting. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1z36-eNaFdHYLbNxsib6nY-D2jbu36c1W?usp=drive_link So so sorry, I meant to make the liner slightly smaller, but realized I had been testing with slightly stretchy muslin and cotton, and for this pattern to work with a better variety of fabrics, I needed to change this. A couple of other notes: 1. The video tutorial is on YouTube It's a draft and may need some time to process on Youtube to be 4K, so apologies if the quality isn't great yet. 2. The instructions have been updated with timestamps for the chapters. 3. A tester named Will had the awesome idea of starting a shared Google Doc where you can add notes as you go to save time. I can actively go through it to make changes and edits as well! No need to fill it out if you want to take notes on your own, but if you want to take notes as you go, this is a great option! 📝 Shared Google Doc https://docs.google.com/document/d/1okDSfezTjx9ZLDbJcaLmBahQbVdJ3EErEYj6d1RHuaY/edit?usp=drive_link Also feel free to use the "Write Something" box at the top of the thread if you want to share photos, questions, etc. You can also comment in specific threads too - whatever works best!!

Welcome everyone, this group is going to be open to those who want to test The Sunday Sling pdf sewing pattern. Please use the main thread to share photos, ask questions, chat fabric, whatever you'd like! I will be monitoring daily and will try to answer questions as quickly as possible - feel free to answer questions folks have in my place too, I want this to feel collaborative! I have never used Skool for this purpose before, but tbh I was over Facebook so I am hoping this is a good alternative! If you hate it, let me know, because I really value your feedback! I'll add the files, instructions, and video tutorial here. You can also access them easily by going to CLASSROOM > SUNDAY SLING TESTING GROUP at the top of the page. Timing October 30 - November 11th I extended the deadline a few days to account for Halloween weekend! I have a little flexibility on the timing, so if you need a little extra time just let me know. If you're able to take notes for feedback while you do, I would really appreciate all the feedback you can give! Here is a link to the Feedback form so you can see what kind of feedback we are looking for: Sunday Sling Feedback Form November 11th Last day to fill out the Feedback Form spreadsheet with your corrections and feedback. All tester's who submit feedback will receive the final pattern as well as a 50% off code to LaRae Handmade website for any other patterns or ready-made goods you may want in the future! This code does not expire. November 11th Last day to submit photos (can submit email or on the Feedback Form). Social media- you’re welcome to share on social but I won’t be re-sharing until the release date! If you don’t mind waiting until the the release date so I can share all at once, that would be great! 🥰 Sunday Sling Pattern Files
