Whew! What a month! It was my first time hosting a sewing challenge and it was so worth it! I cannot express how great it was to get more involved with the sewing community and see how we all came together and inspired each other to make knickers and lingerie!
Here’s a quick round up of how the month went:
(Oh wait, if you don’t know what I’m talking about, check out this blog post or this video, all about introducing #KnickerNovember!)
I did my best to post relevant lingerie-making tutorials and videos here and on my Youtube channel
- How to mirror lace blog and video
- How to make adjustable straps blog and video
- How to sew enclosed seams blog and video
- Lingerie Pep Talk: You can absolutely do it!!
- Pattern inspiration for #KnickerNovember blog
My co-hosts for the month, Laura (on Youtube and Instagram) and Romy (on Youtube and Instagram) also did a great job of keeping everybody hyped up throughout the month and organizing our lovely sponsors and prize packages!
At the end of the month, each of us picked the entry that we loved the most, and Laura randomly picked three winners from the remaining entries and we doled out the prizes!
My “Pick of the Pants” went to @always.sew.hungry for the drop dead gorgeous full-fledged lace set she created! Bra, panties, suspender belt, and she even made the hook and eye to match using the Leverett pattern by Orange Lingerie!
Laura’s “Pick of the Pants” was @sewingbadstitches for her incredibly fun pizza pants! She used the Trixie briefs by Jennifer Lauren Handmade.
And Romy’s “Pick of the Pants” went to @geopril123 for her stunning floral set using the Marlborough bra from Orange Lingerie and Esme panties from Evie La Luve
And our three random draw winners were @creasis.ronse, @happy.button.v, and @eleuthera40!
Thank you so much to everybody who participated, and even if you didn’t get a chance, I hope it gave you some motivation and inspiration to try something new in the near future! And don’t worry, we plan on doing this again next year too!
