Design Confidence
Does this sound familiar?
📌 You’ve spent hours scrolling through Pinterest, saving images of beautiful clothes you dream of wearing
📖 Or maybe you flip through magazines, scribble down ideas and imagine the day those designs could hang proudly in your wardrobe
But when it comes to creating your own sewing patterns, it feels overwhelming
❓ Maybe you don’t know where to start—or you feel confident up to a point, but features like collars, button stands, or plackets seem like a step too far
🔄 So you go back to searching for sewing patterns that are almost what you want
You settle for designs that aren’t quite right. That fabric you’ve been saving? Still sitting there, waiting for its moment
✨ Now imagine this instead…
✅ You scroll through Pinterest, find the perfect dress for your friend’s birthday BBQ, turn it into a sewing pattern, and sew it to perfection—only to be showered with compliments at the party.
✅ You take an outfit from a movie, a design you sketched, or a dress from Pinterest and bring it to life with confidence—because now, you can create the pattern yourself.
✅ That special fabric you’ve been saving? No more waiting. You finally transform it into the garment it was always meant to be.
✅ You design, draft, and sew tops, trousers, dresses, and jumpsuits—exactly how you imagined them, with total creative freedom.
✨ No more searching for the perfect pattern—you create it.
If this makes you feel excited, Design Confidence is the key to turning your dreams into reality.
My desire is you come away being able to turn ANY clothing idea into clothes that make memories with you!
From pin, to pattern, to birthday 🎂 top
From design in my head to engagement 💍 dress!
In case we've not met before..
Hey I'm Sarah,
I’m from the Cotswolds, UK, and I’m on a mission to help you create your dream wardrobe.
I’ve been sewing for as long as I can remember—starting with cuddly toys (including a whole family of dolphins 🐬) and endless cushions for my room, using a hand Singer sewing machine on the dining room floor.
Then I discovered Vogue and clothes shops and I'd dream of the day I could recreate the clothes I saw - but at the time, I had no idea how. A few hacked attempts later, I knew I needed to learn more.
So off I went…
✔ Studied at London College of Fashion
✔ Worked in the fashion industry for years
✔ Taught sewing & pattern cutting, online and in-person
And here we are! Now, hundreds of students around the world are learning from my online courses, classes, and tutorials—bringing their own dream designs to life.
I love creating timeless, elegant pieces with thoughtful details, always using sustainable fabrics where possible. If you scroll through my Instagram, you’ll see plenty of my makes!
💡 In just 10 weeks, here’s what you’ll walk away with:
✅ Two complete sewing patterns for designs of your choice - no longer waiting for the perfect pattern to exist.
✅ The confidence to draft sewing patterns forever - because once you understand how patterns work, the creative possibilities are endless.
✅ The skills to bring your dream designs to life—from collars to cuffs, plackets to fly fronts, button stands to gathers, and so much more.
✅ The creative freedom to sew exactly what you want—whether it’s modifying existing patterns or designing them from scratch.
✅ Lifetime access—so there’s no pressure to remember everything at once. Come back to the lessons anytime, forever.
✨ Imagine looking at a piece of fabric and knowing you can transform it into something beautiful—designed by you, for you.

This is why Design Confidence gets you creating patterns for clothes you love to wear
✅ I teach you WHY, not just HOW
This is probably the most important reason why Design Confidence actually gives you the skills to draft YOUR own patterns. When you understand why things work, you don’t just copy steps—you gain the confidence to apply them to any design you dream up!
✅ You’ll actually practice, not just watch videos
It’s one thing to know how to pivot a dart, draft a button stand, or add gathers. But actually turning an image in your head into a fully functional sewing pattern? That’s the real skill.
That’s why inside Design Confidence, we go beyond the basics with two hands-on implementation projects:
✔ Project 1 – You’ll turn any top design into a pattern
✔ Project 2 – You’ll take it even further and draft a pattern for any garment you choose—trousers, a dress, a shirt, a jumpsuit… whatever you want.
✅ Lifetime access—so no pressure to remember it all at once
Ever been to a class where you feel like you have to memorise everything in real-time? This is not that. Inside Design Confidence, you’ll always have the lessons and resources there to go back to whenever you need them.

✏️ Week 5: Your first implementation project
Now it’s time to put everything you’ve learned into action! You’ll choose a top or shirt design of your choice and draft the pattern - and don’t worry, if you're stuck for ideas or want to build your confidence in the process fast then there are many many clothing example walk throughs already waiting for you
✏️ Weeks 6-9: Expanding your skills to draft trousers, skirts, dresses, jumpsuits & more
We’ll move into trousers and skirts, then piece everything together to create patterns for dresses, jumpsuits, and playsuits - giving you full creative freedom.
✏️ Week 10: Your final implementation project
To finish with a bang, you’ll choose any clothing idea - a dress, playsuit, shirt, or pair of shorts - and turn it into a fully drafted pattern, ready to sew into a garment you love.

FAQs
I've tried to learn this before but I just don't quite get it, how will this be different?
This is exactly why you’ll have two implementation projects—so you can apply what you’ve learned, truly understand how to use the techniques, and put the whole process together.
You’ll also have lifetime access to revisit the lessons whenever you need.
So if you get stuck while learning, I’ll be there to help, and if you ever need a refresher, you can come back and rewatch the tutorials - even years from now.
And this isn’t like piecing together random YouTube videos (and I LOVE YT!). Everything here is broken down step by step, then plugged together into a full process. That’s why this works - because playing the YouTube and blog puzzle is the long game.
I’ve just started sewing - will this be too advanced?
Not at all! If you’ve sewn at least a couple of shop-bought patterns, you’re good to go.
In fact, learning pattern drafting early actually makes sewing so much easier because you’ll understand how patterns work from day one!
Plus, you get bonus sewing tutorials inside the course (sleeves, button stands, plackets, etc.).
I want to design clothes for my daughter and husband too, will this help?
Absolutely! The techniques you learn are transferable and can be applied to any sewing pattern design. The only thing you'll need to source are the blocks - you can either find these on Etsy or draft your own using the Metric Pattern Cutting series
Is there a payment plan?
I have other questions
How much time do you recommend we spend on the course a week?
We recommend spending about 2 hours a week on the course so you can watch and practice everything you'll learn in each module. Even with just a couple of 20-minute slots a week you'll be pattern cutting in no time!
But we totally understand everyone gets busy or takes the odd week off and that's why we give you access for life so that you don't have to feel rushed going through the course and trying to remember everything.
You don’t need to wait for the perfect pattern - you'll have everything you need to create it. The only question is, what will you design first?
