Today, we launch updates to our DIY Collection with new kits, colorways, patterns, and designs. We’re introducing new silhouettes while offering some of our customer favorites with new stencils and treatments. New projects include the Facets Tank Dress, Anna’s Garden Maggie Tunic, and Polka Dot Walking Cape.
Our expanded selection includes a range of projects for the home, like the Magdalena Table Runner and Magdalena Tea Towels. Favorite styles, like our Factory Dress and T-Shirt Top, are now available in the Magdalena stencil. The Magdalena Poncho is now offered with three treatment options: placement reverse appliqué, negative reverse appliqué, and reverse appliqué. A selection of all-time favorite kits—like the Anna’s Garden Long Skirt, Facets Classic Coat, and New Leaves Classic Wrap Skirt—remain but have been given a fresh look with new colorway options.
If you don’t find exactly what you want, you always have the option to create your own Custom DIY Kit. Our custom kit process allows you to mix and match garment styles, color choices, stencil design, and embroidery techniques to design your perfect garment. For more information on how to design your kit, visit our Custom DIY form. We also have a growing range of patterns and stencils available on our Resources page alongside our Maker Supplies—such as 100% organic cotton jersey, sewing notions, and stenciling supplies—if you enjoy every step of the making experience and prefer creating your garments start-to-finish at home.
As always, our DIY Kits come ready-to-sew with pre-cut and stenciled fabric and all the thread and notions you need to complete your project. Each kit is meant to be completed with help from our Studio Book Series, where you can find construction and embroidery instructions. Or you can learn Alabama Chanin techniques first-hand, as well as gain special instruction and insights, at one of our workshops hosted at The Factory.
