LA Couture for yourself or for those you love (strongly)!
This ancestral activity has caressed, cajoled and invigorated the entire Les Brunettes team.
For ecological, economic or therapeutic reasons, is your desire to sew extremely present and anchored in your personal project notebooks?
All that remains is a dose of self-confidence and the willpower to stay on course (beginning is the key to all projects).
Don't know where to start?
The Les Brunettes office gives you all the tips and tricks to surround yourself with the recommended tools to become an outstanding seamstress.
Every time you feel discouraged, read this mantra 5 times out loud without stopping! We tested it and it works!
Today is a good day to sew.
Empower your personality.
Express yourself.
Sew your own style.
THE sewing machine is a substantial investment and a long-term purchase when it comes to sewing for your entire life on a regular basis.
Listen to the advice of an experienced friend or get some guidance from our super team in our (pretty) Parisian boutiques.
Our team uses the Atelier Brunette patterns to sew clothing for our shoots with:
-The PFAFF EXPRESSION 720 sewing machine
- The PFAFF COVERLOCK 4.0 serger.
With clean and effortless cutting!
Follow this advice (with never ending loyalty): never use your pair of sewing scissors to cut paper (be careful, don’t be tempted!)
Your best ally for sewing your Atelier Brunette fabrics with precision.
The tool that has existed throughout history. It is used to take your measurements and to sew the right size according to the pattern you are sewing.
Choose LE tape measure that we have developed especially for you. It is the ideal measuring tool that fits perfectly into the Atelier Brunette universe.
The tool for tidying up your work once finished or throughout the sewing process.
Cutting the small threads that resist your sewing with quick and accurate precision is the key to a successful project.
We love this practical ally for its small size and maneuverability.
Choose them according to the thickness of your fabrics to place and cut your pattern but also to assemble two pieces to be sewn together.
Beware of pins scattering in your living room or sewing space! Gather them around your wrist with the pin cushion bracelet (your feet will thank you!).
This small accessory is very useful for correcting tiny sewing errors and more (wrong side/right side, questionable straight seam, opening buttonholes, etc.)
This tool is a sewing essential no matter what level sewer you are!
It is useful for drawing different hem lines from the pattern proposals you have selected or adding seam allowances if the sewing pattern doesn’t contain it.
Its uses for beginners: the multifunction sewing gauge, the multifunction ruler that accompanies you to transfer your seam allowances, hems and more if you like!
Bias tape, buttons or even elastic bands and matching threads contribute to the precious details of ready-to-wear clothing.
Your friends, and your colleagues will be amazed and you will be even more satisfied with your investment.
The cherry on the cake? Choose a woven label (to sew with love) to add the final touch to your project and invite you to already think about the next one!
The sewing level should not be your driving force but a simple indicator.
Falling in love with a sewing pattern model, a piece that inspires you or a wardrobe that inspires you, these are the bases for surpassing yourself without a hitch (we have tested it again for you).
Despite everything, the team with eclectic styles has prepared THE Selection for beginners within our Atelier Brunette Sewing Pattern Collection.
