Shaerie is one of the best teachers I have come across, and I have taken A LOT OF CLASSES!
All these years I thought rust/terracotta color is for only cool girls therefore not for me. But I had to throw my silly belief out the window!! Have you seen Meg’s corduroy [pinyon pants] version?? They look soooo gooood and I thought I had to have a pair of rust colored pants in my closet. Here’s my cool girl’s pants!
The Mindful Wardrobe Project has helped me define for myself what clothes I want to wear and encouraged me to play with the clothes I already own to put together new favorite outfits. I have gained confidence in wearing my own clothing choices without worrying whether they are “in style.” The online community has been lovely for chatting with others with similar wardrobe goals but unique personal styles, and the opportunity to ask sewing and fitting questions has been so helpful.
Sew liberated had been on my radar for a number of years, and had with great hope purchased some patterns and even the fabric. .. then life got busy. But when I saw the fit & sew class for the Chanterelle pants I found time and made it a priority. As a life long sewist there are many gaps in my skill set, and confidently altering a pattern to fit the body I have now is a glaring one. I was so impressed with the format of the class and Sharie’s ability to teach in such a way that she hit on all of the small things a newby wouldn’t know while at the same time not dumbing it down so much that a veteran like myself would loose interest. I love my pants so much I even find myself dreaming of laundry day so I can wear them again.
The Hinterland Dress is EVERYTHING in my wardrobe. I wear my Hinterlands all year round here in Australia.
I'm looking forward to sewing a Lichen duster for next autumn/winter so I can wear it over my Hinterlands with tights. Minimal effort but so lovely (and comfy!)
I would like to praise the pattern for the Metamorphic dress, which was my first Sew Liberated make, and in fact the first thing I have hand-sewn since I was in school (over 35 years ago!!!!)
The pattern was just what I was looking for, the instructions were really comprehensive and easy to follow, and I loved learning new things, especially the 'burrito' method for sewing the lined bodice. And as well as Sew Liberated getting me sewing once more, I was delighted with the results, so all-in-all I can't thank you enough!

I’m Meg, and I passionately believe that what you put on your body matters.
Your clothing choices affect your mood, which affects your thoughts, which make you … well, YOU.
I want you to dress yourself with intention. To clothe yourself in lovingly-made, well-fitting treasures. To dress how you want to FEEL.
I didn’t always have this clarity surrounding my wardrobe. Learn more about how my son’s devastating diagnosis shaped me into the confident and purpose-filled sewist I am today.
You want to love your wardrobe. You want the joy of making something beautiful.
But, let’s be honest, that long list of potential projects can be OVERWHELMING, making you feel anxious rather than joyful.
I’ve developed a Guide to Holding Time for Creativity where I show you a path to slowing down, finding mental space, and turning your sewing into a practice of self-care.
