I love everything about this

I love everything about this! The products are great quality, the monthly boxes are functional choices & a nice variety, Taylor does a good job explaining the process in the videos & the customer support is fantastic - even when the support you really need may belong in the psychological field :). I’m SEW happy I signed up for this!

Thank you, Kathleen, for sharing that insight, we try to strike a balance between projects that challenge us but are still accessible for sewists with less experience. Feel free to reach out to us any time with project ideas, we love to hear them!

Just What I Needed

This is just what I needed to keep moving outside my sewing comfort zone. I love learning new things and with each monthly box it's something different. So far I have only made one item, following the video has been a big help as I am more of a visual learner. Excited to keep going and making more.

I like the different ways of projects that are useful and have a little design to them, that is not a repeat of someone else's. Thank you.
Like the videos too.

Mixed

I like that pieces come pre-cut. I love that each box comes with pins and even a sewing machine needle. I like that there are video tutorials. It would be helpful if printed instructions had diagrams included with the step being explained. Instructions at times are confusing even in video. The fabric prints I’ve received so far are very muted. I would love to see more crisp, vibrant colors, more florals, etc.m. I had fat quarters added in the beginning but once I had 3 boxes with prints I really didn’t like I removed that option. Love the FB group where users can share how their project turned out.

I love that I don't have to cut the fabric. I don't do well with "reading" patterns, so the videos are fantastic for a "visual" person like myself. I like that I can skip a month if the project doesn't excite me. The projects I have done have been fun, and I have always learned something. I am an advanced beginner and really enjoy this subscription. I once had a small issue with something and emailed customer service. They went above and beyond.

Excellent way to build skills

I have completed 6 so far and am looking forward to the next one! So far it has been a wonderful way to build skills, without having to pull all of the stuff together. Everything i need to complete the project arrives in the box, along with re-useable patterns and video tutorials are available for each project as well. It's nearly perfect for beginning sewists.

Mostly useful projects

I have enjoyed the project. I really do appreciate the very most that online video that helps you so the project together. I have found that some of the projects are more useful than others. In particular, the mini duffel bag, which I use is a pocketbook, the two zipper pouch which I use as a cosmetic case and the apron, which of course is always handy. My sewing machine has been at the shop so I have not tried the white container cover yet, but I’m not sure quite how useful that is.

Thank you for your feedback, Debbie. We are glad that you have enjoyed your projects so far. If you ever see an upcoming project in the Sneak Peek that you aren't interested in, just email us at support@sewwhatbox.com and we would be happy to pause your subscription for that month. Are there any project types that you would like to see in future boxes?

That there is a video

That there is a video. I am a visual learner. In the past I have had lots of problems reading patterns. Now I can watch and repeat what I see. I am so encouraged and people around me who see the finished product are amazed at the detail, quality and colour selections.
Thank you.

This is the best thing in Sewing that…

This is the best thing in Sewing that happened to me , to find the "Sew What Box" ad!
It's not expensive and it's so much fun, with fun material and fun projects that I would never alone tackle. It's pre cut and that is soooooooooo Great! There is a written and a video tutorial and that is also the best thing, I do better with videos then written and this makes it so easy for me to try to learn new projects that I otherwise never would tackle. I love that I can add on to my box, or opt out a month if I dont like the project. The quality of the fabric is so nice and thick. Really nice cotton!!! Every month I am looking forward to my new project and I am always amazed at myself, that I am finishing it so nicely!!
I love my Sew What Boxes!!!

Canceled my subscription because I asked questions

Canceled my subscription because I inquired about a few questions and you always put down the wrong card when it said on I am it had the right card information I really enjoyed doing these boxes. But you keep telling me that I am no longer able to get those. Because you don't like the questions. I asked.

Poor quality fabric, no pattern without monthly subscription

I ordered the Roll-up Art Organizer project box without a monthly subscription so I could determine if I wanted to commit to the subscription . I received the fabric pieces, notions and instructions, but no pattern which was described in the Facebook ad. When I reached out to customer service, I was told the pattern was an additional cost.

The fabric pieces are very thin, low quality fabric. Instructions are adequate to an experienced sewer, but could have been clearer ( for example, specifically labeling the different patterned fabrics as A, B, C).
A beginner would not be able to complete this project in 90 minutes.
Overall, I am very dissatisfied with quality, deceptive product description. I will not be subscribing to this product.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, Joanna. As discussed with our support team, you purchased a project kit- these kits are featured in our monthly box which does include a printed pattern as well. The ready-to-sew kits are sold on their own in the Project Shop at a lower price than the complete box. That is why you were offered the opportunity to buy the pattern on its own.

I appreciate your insight on the fabric. This kit includes fabric from last year which we were trialing. We do not use any longer when printing our designs.
