Thank you so much for tuning in. This week my guest is the fabulous Jenny Rushmore of Cashmerette.  I have admired Jenny for a long time, as a regular consumer of the excellent information in the  Curvy Sewing Collective and following the Cashmerette Pattern brand as it has grown and flourished. I was delighted to get the chance to ask Jenny about her journey and her mission and she was so generous in opening up in our chat. She shares how as a curvy sewist she discovered sewing aged 30 and as she began to make her own clothes she realised it transformed not only what she was wearing but also her confidence.What you will hear in this episode:

  • How Jenny's sewing journey began
  • Her transition in just 10 years from corporate marketing non-sewist to fabulously successful plus-sized pattern brand
  • The birth of the Curvy Sewing Collective
  • The a-ha that lead to Cashmerette and their mission to help real women with real bodies
  • The most valuable business lesson Jenny has learned
  • The most surprising personal lesson from her experience along the way
  • Why Cashmerette patterns are different
  • The most common mistakes sewists make when using sewing patterns
  • Jenny's top tip to get a much better fit
  • The future plans for Cashmerette
