New pattern coming soon—testers needed!

everyday-sweatshirt-pattern-on-made-everyday-with-dana-willard

In my normal sewing life, it seems I’m always a season behind whatever project I’m working on.  If it’s the last day of summer, I’ve started thinking about a tank top pattern.  Or when Halloween has come and gone, I’m finally posting about my kids’ costumes.

I’ll chalk up the crazy timeline to the artist in me.  Cause when you get the excitement to make something, you have to get started RIGHT then while you’re motivated.  Amiright?!  Even if you’re sewing tank tops in November.

But.  This time around I did it!
I have a new pattern coming!  And it’s in the perfect season!
