The ninth letter: significant changes

Dear Readers,

It's time to rekindle our connection, to pick up the thread of our shared passion after this prolonged silence. 

These past few months have been a whirlwind of activities and creations, and I'm eager to share these new adventures with you.

During this period of absence, I far from idle. On the contrary, I've been diligently working behind the scenes to offer you new sewing treasures. Four new patterns have come to life, the pablo wrap overalls, Paloma dress, Phen pants and Pincha overalls, each carrying a story, hours of trials, and refinement. Sewing is a journey, and I'm thrilled to have you embark on this voyage with me.

Beyond my creations, life has led me to new geographic horizons. I moved to a new region, where every street, every market, every piece of fabric sparks new ideas. I've also dedicated time to organizing an event close to my heart: "The Knit & Eat Festival" in Lyon (France). This experience was enriching and allowed me to meet some of you in person, an unforgettable experience.

In the studio, significant changes are in progress. Currently, I'm immersed in the meticulous revision of my patterns blocks. This process demands time, trials, and above all, patience. I'm also on the verge of launching measurement studies, a project that holds a special place in my heart. These studies will be open source because I deeply believe in the power of sharing. Together, we can create a space where every sewist, regardless of their body shape, feels comfortable and confident in their creations.

In the coming days, you will receive a link to a form if you wish to participate in these studies. Your voice is invaluable in this process, and I'm eager to collaborate with you to create patterns that truly cater to your needs and expectations.

I appreciate your patience and unwavering support. Every message, every shared creation is a source of inspiration for me. Together, let's continue to weave the fabric of this wonderful community.

With gratitude and enthusiasm,
Raphaëlle
