For U.S. history buffs, the allure of Philadelphia is evident. It’s the birthplace of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution and home to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. For beer lovers, the city boasts a slew of unique breweries you can’t find anywhere else and for artsy-fartsy folks, this museum houses more Degas than the Llouvre in Paris. A lot of students who attend Bra Making with Madalynne workshops travel from out of town. You may not think so, but the city of Brotherly Love has a ...

Madalynne X Creativebug: Lingerie + Bra Making Video Tutorial Sneak Peek
Before Sewing Lessons of Redwood City and I decided to partner on a satellite Bra Making with Madalynne workshop (you can read the recap and see all the photos here), the folks at Creativebug and I had something in the works. Something that until now, I've wanted to share, but haven't been able to. Now I can! Woo! Last week, Tuesday through Thursday to be exact, I was in their studio filming 3 tutorials. As a visual person, I need pictures and videos in order to grasp something. Give me written directions and ...
Bralettes with Support: Bra Making with Madalynne San Fran Recap
I gave up a lot when I left a secure, corporate gig to pursue Madalynne. A pay check, a secure future... but what I gained in this new life has been much more. One of the things that I have gained is being able to travel and teach. I've taught in London, I've taught in Los Angeles, and last weekend, I had the opportunity to partner with Sewing Lessons of Redwood City to teach a satellite Bra Making with Madalynne workshop in the San Francisco Bay area. The stars aligned perfectly actually. Something that has been ...
Recap: Madalynne X The Laundress Intimate Shopping Event
Despite the downpour and the excessive humidity (can you say frizzy hair?), The Laundress X Madalynne shopping event last week was a total hit. From 6-8:00PM, guests were welcomed to their super cute and super little shop on Prince Street, and had the chance to shop my new DIY bachelorette party kits, 8711 kits as well as ready made lingerie. The night was really about mixing and mingling. I met Erica from P.S. I Made This (I've been following her since I started blogging!), Lindsey from Bitches Who Brunch, as ...

Attention Cali Folks! Sign up for Bra Making with Madalynne in San Francisco
Attention Cali folks! Good news! I'll be in San Francisco area in early August for a super secret, covert lingerie mission that I can't talk about until later this year ; ) While I'm there, however, the ladies of Sewing Lessons in Redwood City have invited me to host a Bra Making with Madalynne. Teaching this workshop 2 years ago in London with The New Craft House was such a high point. This transpired quickly, but I couldn't turn down the opportunity. So, I'll be hitting the road in just a few weeks to teach ...
February Snippets: A Floridian Wedding Weekend
While nor-easter Riley roared through the north last weekend, I was soaking up sun, mi familia, 70 degree daytime highs and 60 degree nighttime lows. Where was I? My home turf - Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. The first of the Flanigan clan to get hitched, my brother and his now wife married in a super small wedding. Congrats to Anne + James! The ceremony was only a day, that Saturday, with a brunch the day after. My boyfriend and I made a trip out of it, spending 6 days in sunny South Florida (read: away from old man ...
