Sourcing all the materials for a bag project can be frustrating. There always seems to be something you’re missing, and sometimes you just want to get on and sew. That’s where our maker’s box comes in! This box contains everything you need to make a bag, including the printed pattern and pattern pieces. We’ll be offering these boxes every few months as a pre-order. If you don’t want to miss out, make sure you join our mailing list where we’ll notify you first.
The fabrics and contents of each box will be chosen by us and cannot be customised, but we’ll co-ordinate everything so you can be confident you’ll have a beautiful bag when you’re finished. We’ll also try to introduce you to some fabrics you may not have tried before. After each pre-order closes, we’ll dispatch your box within 6-8 weeks.
Our current pre-order is open from 3rd-9th October 2022, though it may close early if we reach maximum capacity. The expected dispatch date is 1st December. For this round, you can choose from the Daythum sling or the Ojyma crossbody sewing patterns. Both boxes contain the same fabric combination.
It is all about the math! I am pretty good at making up my own patterns on the spot, but can never replicate it. A sewing pattern (especially a well-written one) takes out all of the guesswork. This is especially true for wallets where there typically is not a lot of wiggle room for errors. I look forward to reading your blog. Please ask Adam to include lots of Fabricator tips and tricks. There isn’t a lot for us users out there (specifically about bag making).
Great idea! I’ll make sure Adam writes a post soon about his top tips and biggest mistakes on the Fabricator 😁 he’ll enjoy that
