‹ Wood, cloth and the workshop

A focused newsletter on sewing patterns and machines, for people who sew their own clothes

Monthly

Once a month: a new pattern release with the fit and skill level, a machine or serger release worth knowing about, a review from someone who actually made the pattern, and one technique worth learning. For someone who already sews their own clothes, not a general fashion read.

Not fast-fashion retail news, not general fashion trend pieces with no pattern or technique, not knitting and crochet content unless the reader also does those, not affiliate fabric shop listicles.

Where the news comes from: McCall Pattern Company, Seamwork by Colette, PatternReview, Sew Historically, Grainline Studio blog.

Nobody gets this one yet. It starts when you do.
