The designer writes her patterns with step-by-step photos, directions, diagrams, and digital illustrations so everyone has a successful experience. There is video support on the designer’s blog where she will help you walk through the adjustable strap and the optional vinyl add-on. All of her patterns go through three rounds of testing by testers with varying levels of sewing experience, including beginner to advanced.
