New sub for all things sewing, from crafts to quilts to tents to clothing. Come share your sewing knowledge or link a cool pattern or video. Questions are great too. I'm self taught, only sewing for a few years now, so I'm always looking for better, smarter, or even old time ways to get the job done. I love making something from nothing, totally rewarding and satisfying to the soul, I should have kicked that sewing machine's ass sooner.
I'm hand sewing small toys now and the seams wrinkle/pucker at the curves so I figured out what I'm probably doing wrong thanks to this article. Hope it helps!
This is probably not the type of garment a guy would wear in suburbia but it'd be perfect for grubby work in the forest, garden, what have you. It's a simple style you could make multiples of. Plus it looks really comfortable!
I'll be sewing rather than use glue in some places but that's simply my personal preference. You could leave the roof disconnected and use the house as a storage basket (with the roof as a sort of lid).
Great beginner project, this gal is super chatty but there's a few good nuggets of info. She uses PUL for her lining, so air dry after laundering. There's a company that makes a food-grade PUL, https://wazoodle.com/products/food-safe-eco-pul, this would be what I'd use.
