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.

Running with scissors is totally allowed here.

I'd have done this with French seams to prevent fraying, but this is a quick way to get the job done.

Cold weather will be here before you know it!

From the introduction:

"Lining handknit caps with polar fleece is a good trick to know. Lining with polar fleece can make too-big hats fit, and it eliminates wool itchiness from sensitive foreheads."

I don't have any affiliation with this guy but he's one of my favorites right now and is inspiring me to get serious about making more detailed works.


I like that he's reclusive and not an attention whore. He just does his stuff, posts them on his site, and that's about it.

You can see more of his stuff here: http://www.mister-finch.com/portfolio/
