Chit Chat with Lisa Kisch / And Sew On

Hello lovelies!   I recently sat down with Lisa Kisch, from the popular YouTube channel And Sew On.  We talked about what its like being a designer and how I came to start my business, the fabrics I use and I threw in some tips on sewing, machinery & pattern making!  

If you're a "sewcialist", you'll love Lisa's content and channel!  AND there's a little giveaway happening because I couldn't resist handing over some of my personal fabric stash to share with Lisa's viewers.  Check out the videos (yes, there's 2 videos because we couldn't stop the chatter!) - Part 1 here and Part 2 here.   Don't mind my messy studio either - its where I work so, things get messy!  ;)  To win the giveaway(s) you'll have to subscribe to Lisa's channel / follow Simone's Rose on Instagram and comment on one of the videos + the post on my Instagram with the photo shown below.  Good luck!  

OH!  And there's a Simone's Rose discount code in it for you too!  Check out Lisa's video notes to discover the code & check out our shop!  :)
