Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers are really happy with the products and the overall user experience, finding the subscription enjoyable and the projects engaging. People appreciate that everything needed for a project is included in the box, and many enjoy the convenience of pre-cut materials. The video tutorials are frequently praised for being helpful and easy to follow, making sewing accessible for both beginners and experienced sewers. However, some customers also noted issues with the quality of the fabric, describing it as sometimes faded, dull, or cheap. A few other people also felt that the laser cutting of pieces needed adjustment, leading to incorrectly cut fabric. Additionally, some reviewers found the written instructions brief and the video tutorials occasionally too fast or vague, making them difficult to follow at times.

The projects have become more…challenging!

The projects have become more challenging which I love. I do wish the choice of fabrics were a little brighter and less dull and mundane.
The support team is very helpful when you contact them for information or changes!

I've enjoyed the diversity of projects

I've enjoyed the diversity of projects. I've noticed on the last couple projects no mention of time estimates for the project. While I have yet to finish a project in the expected time (im still learning, so I expect that would be the case). I do like the time included so I can see if I have time (and then some) to finish the project that day.

Hello Katie, thank you for sharing your insight on the time estimate, I will share that feedback with our team.

I am glad to hear you are enjoying the diversity. It is a goal of ours to come up with projects that include a variety of skills, themes, and uses. Happy sewing!

I accidentally got this subscription

I accidentally got this subscription. I thought I was purchasing a single project. Not something every month that I’m not even interested in.

In comparison to another monthly sewing…

In comparison to another monthly sewing box I receive, your box is OK. The other box I receive is the same price, but the products I receive are amazing. It is just not a little fabric and pattern to do a project, but they also send other very nice products for me to try. I am sorry, but they just do not compare. Plus, I do not have to stay with them for a year before I can cancel. I am sent an email every month asking me if I wish to receive their box that month and if I do not, I do not have to receive it and I can cancel the subscription any time I want.

Yay! That is what we love to hear. We hope you get inspired to try lots of new stuff that may have felt too out of reach before. Happy sewing!

Positives and negatives

I like the fact that everything is in the box you need to complete the project. Some of the instructions are difficult for a new sewer. Even the video is sometimes hard to follow. It would also be nice if you were given an idea of what is in the box and an option to opt out for boxes you didn't want or you felt were too difficult.

I really like the February sew box

I really like the February sew box. the star trivet. I like sewing useful items. I know this is not a quilting box but I usually don't use the extra fabric to make another monthly project so maybe you could give a quilt block suggestion. I like to quilt and if you had a monthly block suggestion we could have a quilt made from the extra material.

Thank you for taking the time to offer that feedback. We love our quilter members, and we are glad to offer them an opportunity to get sewing projects done in one sitting. It would be really neat to see quilts made from our fabric collections. Happy sewing!
