How to… plan your sewing projects

Get organised with the My Handmade Wardrobe Dressmakers Planner!

We designed the dressmakers planner to help us organise our sewing plans, and we hope it will help you to organise yours too!

I’ve always loved designing and planning sewing projects almost as much as the actually making! Previously I used a simple notebook to plan out our makes for the month, season and year but I wanted something more directional to streamline my excessive creativity and making plans to help us focus on what we need and want to make!

The My Handmade Wardrobe Dressmakers Planner is a soft covered, spiral bound A5 notebook with sections and prompters to help you plan, organise and review your upcoming dressmaking projects.

The planner includes sections to help you think through your making plans and design a wardrobe of coordinating garments which will help you celebrate your own personal style.

There is room for 20 projects which should be enough to last a good 6 months to a year depending on your appetite for sewing. We are very fond of quick makes and so having a lot of room for our projects was important to us!

Each project section will help you design your garment, track your progress with the help of a handy key and tick box tracker and review your make to help you organise your blogging/vlogging or give you ideas for your next make.

We hope that by the time you reach the end of the planner you will have created a wardrobe full of lovely clothes and have a good sense of what you love to make a wear!
