My jacket won first prize!!!
Let me tell you a little something about Pattern Review. I have never been surrounded by such a warm and generous community. I joined Pattern Review this year because I wanted to learn how to sew but didn’t have the time or the funds to take outside classes. When I signed up, I thought I would just have access to a few sewing articles at best. I had no idea that I would be joining a family. That’s why I am especially honored to have won a prize in one of PR’s sewing contests. At a time in my life when I really needed a boost of confidence (not just in sewing but life in general) , the PR community was right there. I wish I could express my gratitude in words, but somehow it doesn’t seem like enough.
Thanks Pattern Review and Deepika for the honor!!!
