My little cats, my little loves, my little butter hearts,

It's with immense joy and pride, and a lot of stage fright, that I'm delivering to you today a project that's been close to my heart for months: Wear Lemonade. I've been looking for the right partners, the right suppliers, the right graphics, the right concept! And then I really wanted to launch "Wear Lemonade" in January - okay, it's the 30th, but January nonetheless.

So yes, it's really close to my heart, because this project is the meeting point of where I come from, with my training as a stylist, and where my life has taken me, with you. So I had an incredible time designing these patterns, all the pieces I'd like to wear, that I can't necessarily find, and I wanted to revisit the Mode et Travaux sewing patterns in a more lemony way...

So I'm going to give you a monthly appointment during which I'll teach you how to make a garment from A to Z! You can buy the one-piece sewing pattern, in its kraft pouch with explanatory booklet and "Wear Lemonade" label, at online store... By the end of the year, you'll have your own line of Make My Lemonade essentials!

 We start with the little Luisa dress, super easy, with pockets, which will suit every figure, free to customize it as you like, with little bows like this do it yourself, with a huge flower instead of a bow, to wear it with a removable collar underneath, reappropriate it! Please note: sewing values are not included in the pattern, you'll need 1m50 of fabric to make Luisa, and if you don't make it in a fabric containing elastane, you'll need to cut the sleeves on the bias! But don't worry, we'll be there in case of doubt! And of course I absolutely want to see your creations, so don't hesitate to share them with #DIYwearlemonade on social networks!

I give you a big hug and can't wait to read your reactions, and we'll see you soon for the rest of the programs! I give you a big hug!

Thanks to Laure, Tania, Charlotte and Jeanne for everything.
