PPC34: the Expand-o-Matic Testing
So… the time in which we needed to get the testing done for our "Expand-o-Matic" pattern fell at a difficult time of year.... "the Holidays"... which can be anytime between November 1st thru December 31st... BUT... THREE of our testers actually were brave enough to make the commitment to test out this new pattern!
And here's the deal... as much as I LOVE seeing what our testers are inspired to create, the critiques and suggestions they supply are definitely what I covet the most! They go a long way to making our pattern instructions clearer & easier to understand and that is the most important thing!
Jeanette Jay hails from San Antonio, TX and began testing for us in the Spring of 2022 with the release of our Bella BiFold design. I LOVE the whimsical exterior fabric Jeanette chose for her Expand-o-Matic! It turned out GREAT, and she said she really enjoyed the make!
Marthe Jones hails from Georgetown, TX, and has been testing for us since we released the Easy Go Wallet in the Fall of 2023. I just LOVE the fabric she chose to use as she made up her Expand-o-Matic! It's totally fun & simply cute as a button & I love the outcome!
Mary Larson of Rochester, MN started testing for us in the 11th cycle of Purse Pattern Chronicles with the Triple Play in 2015. WOW! That's over TEN years ago! But check out her modern take on our Expand-o-Matic! Is this fabric a tribute to the "Blue Man Group"?
And now it's YOUR turn...
If you like the bags our wonderful testers have created this time and if you'd like to leave them some love for them in the "Comments" section" below I'm sure they'd appreciate it. And if you have any questions about the testing process in general, or any of these bag samples in particular, you can leave those there as well and I (or they) will do our best to answer them!
