Thank you for giving us exposure to these creative people.

Wonderful interview! Thank you!

How did I not know about the Weekend Getaway top?!? Love it! And loved this interview, thank you!

I’ve been thinking about the projector file option, it will be interesting to see what you think about that Kennis. I’m grateful for the cup size options as well. I also LOVE to travel. In fact, my husband and I are going to China in October! Wow - your painting is amazing. So detailed. Good to see you Deepika! I’m just hoping that Kennis will read the comments too.

Thanks for this video. I love Itch-to-stitch patterns. The styles are great, and offering cup sizes is one of my “non-negotiables” when deciding to try a new pattern of new pattern company.

I love ITS patterns. I just know that they are well thought through and that even if it is a new technique, it will be properly explained. I also love that it comes in small bust sizes. Not to mention that the styles are always so pretty. I think ITS patterns are some of my most made.

It’s so nice to hear Kennis speak. I really love her style as it is flattering for so many body types. Even casual styles are elegant. Needless to say, I’m a huge fan.

Ken is is so charming ❤. I love Itch to Stitch patterns. I am always amazed at how many patterns she produces a year.

Brilliant idea to interview a designer who is doing everything for their brand. Such a hard working creative. Kennis designs and drafts her patterns so beautifully they are a pleasure to sew. They are also well priced so great value. Loved to hear that she loves long hikes and painting so has a well rounded life. Can’t wait for new dress pattern ❤

Kennis is beloved. ITS are great patterns!

I love the neckline of Kennis' top/dress. I hope there's a pattern for it.

I love itch to stitch and was happy to meet the designer! Thanks for doing this!

It's so exciting and interesting to hear from Kennis! I'm one of those testers that have been with her since the beginning and this is the first time I've heard her voice! Her testing process is the absolute best out there! I love how "finished" the pattern is before going into testing. Everything runs smoother that way (I'm comparing to other designer's tests) and the instructions are awesome!

Such a fun interview- very entertaining!

I am so pleased that Kennis extended her size range so now I can use her patterns without doing LOTS of pattern alterations. Her patterns are good, accurate and rewarding to sew!

This basically confirms why Itch to Stitch is one of the few companies I do buy patterns from. 🙂 I can do so much myself, can draft my own - these patterns are ones I can _learn from._ That's basically my criterium for patterns I actually buy. And that dress is probably going to be another one of those...

Love Itch to stitch patterns! Great to see Kennis interviewed.

What a great conversation. Kennis is amazing.

This was very interesting, keep the creativity coming

I love that you are interviewing pattern designers! There is so much sewing content that it is really amazing to spotlight someone like Jo. I did not know about her patterns, but definitely will be looking at them now! Thank you Deepika for making such a wonderful website for us! I am so grateful for you!

It was very interesting to learn about a new (to me) pattern designer. Loved the muslin garment in the background. It was easy to hear Jo. I could only catch part of Deepika even with the volume turned up. Please get a microphone that will pick up your voice.

I didn't know Forget-Me-Knot patterns were from Aotearoa New Zealand! And I live there! I'm so excited to have found another awesome local designer and I am looking forward to stocking up on her patterns!

I'll have to check out Jo's patterns. Nice interview! Thanks much! (FYI the sound between you and Jo was very unequal. Deepika, your voice is very soft and hard to hear. Not sure how you could remedy that but wanted to let you know)

Nice interview. I still have the FIRST book of pattern designs from Folkwear.

I've been using and loving Folkwear patterns since the late 1970s when my girls wanted "Little House on the Prairie" dresses. Still buying and using the new and old patterns today. As I said, I LOVE them.

Beautiful coats--love this company and the cultural appreciation!

So interesting. Thank you for this education and inspiration!

I really enjoyed this interview. I have been using Folkwear patterns since the 70’s, but wasn’t aware of their history. The detail provided with these patterns is exceptional. I look forward to exploring their website!

The history of Folkwear's ownership was really interesting as well as Molly's explanation of cultural appreciation. The original garments section was fascinating! Thanks for posting this interview!

Thank you for this opportunity to be introduced to Folkwear and was quite impressed with its history of development and current energy to keep it going.

I've had the great fortune to take lessons from Pamela. Her classes are amazing!

Lovely woman Enjoyed this video

Great interview! It was nice to get to know Pamela a little better.

I think everyone Pamela has taught thinks of her as a dear friend. She takes the time to understand her students and make sure they get what they need during their time together. Excellent interview, my friend, Pamela.

From her videos, Pamela always struck me as being a lovely person, and this video confirmed that impression. I wish her continued success!

What a special interview. I have been so inspired by this.

Fun review. I have several of her patterns and am looking forward to sewing them.

Thank you both! It was great to hear your story! I have made several Classic shirts, & have learned so much. My shirts don’t look homemade because of the collar & cuffs & of course the fit. I’ve also made the Breezy blouse & Fira top. My all time favourite however has to be the Building Block Dress book! I’ve made 5 dresses for my grandnieces & they absolutely love them! Thank you!

Love her patterns! Thanks for the interview.

An outstanding interview, thank you both! Liesl, I'm so glad to get to know a little about you. I've made several of your patterns (including at least three dozen Metro and School Bus tees for sons and grandsons) and enjoyed them, but I feel like I'll appreciate your designs even more now that I've learned a bit about your sewing and fashion philosophy. I just purchased the trench and I'm even more excited about making it after seeing your obvious enthusiasm for it!

Fantastic interview! Thanks so much. I’m definitely going to buy one of her patterns that I’ve been considering.

Liesl, your patterns are well written and beautiful design. Please design some patterns for short women! Deepika, your volume is way too low; Liesl's is fine.

👋 I love Liesl’s Patterns. I have so many of them.❤

Is that a shift cowl? I love it!

*Promosm* ✔️

Great interview. Thank you. I'm excited to look into these patterns 💕

Which thread do you use?

I've been a member for years, but had forgotten about the site as I had not been sewing much for a few years. Back at it and the site, just found these videos and really like them. Please continue--they are informative and fun to watch. I really appreciate having a site like PatternReview available. Thanks for all your hard work with the site.

Great interview. I have shared information about Bianca’s book with The Embroiderers Guild here in Melbourne Australia

Wonderful interview. Marisol is one sharp lady. Can't wait for her pattern line! Deepika, if you sewed your top, would you mind sharing the pattern you used?
