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
