Also New in the Club this Month: Masterclass & Live Event
Club members in the Plus and All Access tiers get a new fitting masterclass every month! This month, Jenny’s doing a deep-dive into sleeves. How much ease should you have in a sleeve? What do you do if sleeves are too tight? How should you add or remove length from a sleeve? It’s very fitting that we’re chatting sleeves in a month with two fabulous sleeve options.
Plus and All Access members also get access to this month’s live event on Friday, June 17th. We’ll be chatting all about how to identify your style and build a wardrobe around it. Head to the Club dashboard to learn more and register to attend.
Can’t make it live? This event will be recorded and shared with members afterward.

Not sure where to leave a review, feel free to move this to the appropriate page if you’d like, but here goes!
“I had hit a bit of a sewing block and the Kineton burst right through it. Easy, quick, lovely, useful summer dress in very much less than a day and pretty fabric thrifty too! Forgiving on fit so really nothing to think through just cut and sew and wear. I’d highly recommend it if you need a quick victory!”
