Are you writing a new sewing pattern and want someone to test it? Please contact me! I would love to test and review your pattern. I have a journalism degree that I wish I was using more, so I am looking for free writing experience! I always learn something new from every pattern I try. It’s also a great jumping off point for my own inspirations.

Here is my latest pattern review of a zippered pouch from Pink Sand Beach Designs.
In Fall 2008, I reviewed the Lola Apron designed by Sew Liberated for Sew,Mama,Sew which was quite fun. I enjoyed the process of learning a new pattern, making the project, and writing a review of the instructions and finished piece.
Here was my interpretation of the pattern, which gave the sewist free reign with the embellishments and bias trim:
Here is a close-up shot of the embellishments on the pocket:
In early Spring 2008, I made these green shopping bags which were featured on the Purl Bee.
I kept this brown one for myself, which I use as a knitting bag. I made a second one for my sister which I think became her knitting bag too. I highly recommend this pattern, which was easy to follow and makes a perfect size, sturdy bag!
