Today we are announcing the relaunch of two patterns, the Lou Box Dress 1 and the Lou Box Dress 2. These patterns have been updated to match the sizing of the Lou Box Top, for bust/hip measurements 32-58 inches (81-147cm) and a height of 5’10” (four inches has been added to the length of each dress). The pattern pieces of the LBT and LBD patterns can be mixed and matched for lots and lots of variations. Watch the video below to get all the details and see a few samples of the different views in motion.
What if you’ve already purchased the pattern?
There’s no need to repurchase the pattern. I really appreciate the love that people have shown for my patterns and want everyone to enjoy this new version.
If you purchased the pattern directly from Sew DIY, expect an email in the next week or so with a link to the pattern. If you purchased from another retailer, email sewdiyblog@gmail.com with your order confirmation and we will send you a copy of the new pattern. If you don’t receive an email with the new pattern, email us and we’ll send you the link.
What’s next?
There is already a sewalong for these patterns with lots of info but to supplement with our new video format, we’ll be doing a few additional video tutorials. You can also expect new patterns and e-courses. If you do not already own these patterns, they are currently $2 off until midnight Sunday, Sep 15, 2019. No code required. (Note, the Lou Box Dress Bundle is not on sale.)
And in case you missed it, we’ve also released our very first fabric collection. These fabrics were selected to pair with the Lou Box series of patterns. You can read about the collection here and shop it here.
Thank you so much for your support. I truly appreciate it.
