Congratulations on making it to the next stage of the StitchLab program! Your application has set you apart, and we’re excited to see how you progress from here.

For this round, we’d like you to imagine that you’ve completed the program and are about to launch your own sewing business. You’ve got a small amount of money available to purchase materials and you have access to the StitchLab workspace. Create a business plan using the template below and submit it to us.

This next phase is an important step in helping us determine whether you are the right fit for our program, but we don’t expect you to have all the answers just yet. Many of the topics in this business plan will be covered in more detail throughout the program, and you’ll have plenty of support as you learn. Right now, we’re simply looking to see how you approach the planning process and how committed you are to developing your idea.

While we can appreciate that there are many resources available to you online,
we are looking for original thinkers.

Focus on giving each section your best effort, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you need guidance.
