Happy Valentine’s Day, Designers!
They say do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life. Well, we know that’s not entirely true—designing is hard work! It involves precision, patience, and sometimes, a seam ripper.
But today, on a day dedicated to love, we are kicking off a 14-day journey dedicated to the love of the craft.
Welcome to the Krewe of Designers brand new course!
Over the next two weeks, we aren’t just making a garment; we are diving deep into the "why" behind the "how." We are moving beyond just following instructions and stepping into the mindset of a true designer.
I, Leah B., am thrilled to be your guide as we take a static pattern and breathe life into it.
🗺️ Your 14-Day Roadmap
We’ve structured this course just like professional design development. Here is a sneak peek at the journey ahead:
Phase 1: The Foundation (Days 1-4): We’ll handle the business side (IP & Rights), gather our tools, and select the perfect "canvas" (fabric).
Phase 2: The Blueprint (Days 5-7): We dive into the technical side—the cut list and the art of drafting.
Phase 3: The Build (Days 8-11): The main event. Step-by-step assembly with exclusive Pro Tips from the atelier.
Phase 4: The Heart (Days 12-14): The inspiration story, the grand reveal of your work, and looking ahead to the next design.
đź§µ Your First Assignment
We are a Krewe—a community that supports each other’s growth. Let’s get the energy flowing in the comments below.
Introduce yourself and tell us: What is the one part of the design process you absolutely LOVE? (Is it picking the fabric? The first cut? The final press?)
Let the journey begin!
