STARTER KIT!

Hello everyone!

Well, kittens, after months of work, waiting, testing, feedback and intense excitement, I'm ready to present our latest baby: the Starter Kit ! It's a box, a beautiful powder pink drawer box, "polkatized" in intense red and gold, containing the most beautiful tools to start sewing! Well, "start", or start afresh, with brand-new, irresistible tools! My heart skipped a beat when I came across these handy mini scissors for embroidery! And then the little heart patch in bouclette... It made me want to develop a little line of embroidered patches! I'll let you discover our video, made with a lot of love, like everything else on this project! In short, the starter kit is the fruit of many months of research and a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, a gift for the 1-year anniversary of our adventure to you and to us. Wear Lemonade !

You'll soon have it in your hands and you too will be opening this drawer, I can't believe it! It's quite a unique feeling to work on such a complete object. I wanted us to have a beautiful object that was representative of our universe, combining visual pleasure with practicality. You know, as a child I was sure that with a new schoolbag and a new fountain pen, I'd be a better student than the year before. Beautiful tools are part of a kind of resolution ritual! Just like when you decide to go to the gym again, you buy a new winning outfit... I wanted this starter kit to make you want to get back behind your sewing machines, take on new sewing projects and, above all, push yourself to Do. Because with tools like these, I can tell you that it could be rechristened the "kickass sewing kit"!

This magical box contains :

• A pair of heavy fabric scissors, stable and perfectly proportioned.
• A small pair of adorable embroidery scissors.
• A box of short pins, 15 grams of emergency supplies!
• A tape measure - we'll show you how to measure yourself soon!
• Red tailor's chalk, ideal for light and dark fabrics.
• A pair of pliers so you don't lose your patterns once you've cut them out.
• A set of needles, because we can never have enough.
• Gold thread, because we always like it shiny!
• Masking tape to assemble your pdf (yes, you read that right... #comingsoon) or to sew a swimsuit (yes!).
• And a little bouclette heart patch to embroider on any project...

You can find the Starter Kit on the shop for 59 euros. And you can pick yours up this afternoon at the Lemonade Studio!

And because good news never comes alone, we're launching Wear Lemonade fabrics today! We're testing the sale of our own prints on soft, shirt-quality cotton poplin! These are just our Wear Lemonade patterns, produced in very small quantities, to test if you like them, from :

• our polka dot " Dots"on an off-white background,
• our cherries "Cherry Chérie"navy blue on a powder pink background,
• and our eyelashes "Crazy Eyes"navy blue on an off-white background!

We don't sell fabric by the cm, but in 1m50 or 3m lengths. These are the standard sizes for all types of garments. 1m50 for small items such as blouses, blouses, cushions, etc... And 3 meters for all other gathered or long dresses.

The 1m50s are priced at 32 euros per coupon, and the 3-meters, more economical of course, are priced at 56 euros per coupon.

That's a lot of info for this post, but it's a very big day for us today! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll enjoy it all! Don't hesitate if you have any questions! I can't wait to hear from you! Hugs and kisses!
