Good Morning Erin,
My name is Michelle and I just found you on Instagram, u have logged into your website (listening to your bra creating podcast, and have signed up for your news letter).
I am a ‘lover’ of bra creation (for a personal venture of my own)…but I have had anxiety about getting started for 2 years😕. I know how sad.
I am a Mental Healrh Therapist, by profession, wife, mother of two (9 & 10), Woman Entrapenuer & have sought out my reasons for my anxiety, faced them and have placed them where they belong…in the 🌬.
My mother loved to sew, taught my cousin…but, I was the one outside playing 😏.
I am a self taught, beginner (but not too bad)…but am now eager, and ready to enter into my dream, desire and passion ‘Bra Creation’.
I will follow you, learn from you & hopefully one day her to meet you.
I am an older beginner…but earnest and true to my desire (eventually, business desire).
I hope you don’t mind my email.
Thank you ‘ahead’ for your inspiration.
Beginner Bra Maker,
Michelle
Sewing is a hobby of mine I don’t get to pursue as often as I’d like so I’m SO glad I’ve found this podcast! I often find I don’t have the time to learn new skills so end up making the same easy patterns. I can now listen as I travel and work which is perfect! a nice, well fitting bra is the next project in my to do list.
