Meet Jessica:
Hi, I’m Jess (aka Jessi-Lou). I’m a sewing pattern designer, mentor, and someone who loves to sew clothes!
After falling in love with sewing and designing, I opened a made-to-order sustainable clothing brand called Intoku. A few years and a big move later, I realized that I could only sew so many clothes on my own and it was time to pivot my brand.
Although I loved sewing for customers, these days I'm focused on making sewing and designing more accessible to all. I offer size inclusive sewing patterns, teach patternmaking and grading, and I help indie designers create successful businesses through my Pattern to Market course.
If you want to learn how to sew, learn patternmaking, or become a pattern designer, you’re in the right place. I’d love to help with whatever stage you're at.
