Introducing our latest podcast episode! Join us as we chat with Lindsey, the owner of Ellie and Mac Pattern Company. Lindsey has made a mark in the indie sewing pattern community with her size-inclusive designs for newborns, children, women, and men. This conversation is not to be missed!Lindsey's Bio: I found my love of designing and sewing when I had my first daughter, Aubrey. I wanted her to wear cute, boutique-style clothing, but I couldn't afford it. I decided to ask for a sewing machine for Christmas and proceeded to teach myself to sew.Along the way, I realized that I had something special about putting fabrics together, and I loved the adorable creations I was making.I began selling clothing online with the encouragement of family and friends. I learned new and better ways to make them each day and continued to grow my business. Ten years later, having a successful business, I wanted to give back. I decided to offer sewing patterns for the dresses I sold in my boutique for those who couldn't afford them. Keeping patterns affordable for everyone is a huge passion and the inspiration for my weekly sale. I wanted to give back to where it all began for me.From there, I was hooked. Designing sewing patterns was so fun, and I found that the more I worked at learning how to draft patterns, the better I became at it. I have been designing patterns since 2012, and there is nothing I love more.Twitter - https://twitter.com/EllieandmacInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/EllieandMac_Patterns/Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.ca/EllieandmacsewingpatternTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ellieandmac_patternsYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkvleOFeJDHyjbx1gI-vxQwFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/ellieandmacWebsite - https://www.ellieandmac.com/Check out our NEW website and signup for our newsletter to be the first to know who we are interviewing next, submit questions for the podcast, and so much more!https://thesewcialhourpodcast.com/New this year in 2023: THIRSTY THURSDAY - Behind the scenes content to get to know us and our guests on a more personal level.
