An open book section showing a photo of a ladies blue gown from 1860-69 and descriptions of its historical context.

A book opening showing technical in garment pattern diagrams and partial drafting instructions.

Short answer: brilliant! Lots of detail, diagrams and explanations. I’m not at the skill level yet to use it, but even that aside it’s still a really interesting read! Definitely recommend it! 🤗

Odicoat gel for waterproofing fabric isn’t crippled by men who don’t quilt or sew deciding that interfacing including iron on vinyl should be 17-24 inches wide. #shoplocal #crafting #sewing #quilting #fiberart

I may or may not be considering this as an item to make and sell on my Etsy store in order to fund my comic as well as move towards upcycling.

Me in the the gray deadstock memade skirt but unable to pose nice and poised for a somewhat decent picture because of the tortitude cat rolling allover my unfinished fabrics and patterns laying on the floor.

Heads always cut off! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 More #sewing & #jewelry details in Alts. Open pics up also to see the cat rolling at the bottom of the frame.

You can also see how this skirt & many more were made #sewsky: kristinbattestella.blogspot.com/2023/05/5-sk...

An excerpt from a service manual for the Pfaff 230 & 332 machines. It reads: From time to time, about once every six month, it is advisable to rinse all moving parts in pure kerosene. This will help maintain the easy running of the machine. Proceed by squirting ample kerosene into all oil holes of the machine, raise the presser foot and run the unthreaded machine at high speed. After oil residues and dirt particles have been washed out, oil the machine and wipe it off. This procedure should be followed regardless whether the machine is used little or not at all. Cleaning and lubricating the sewing hook is instructed on page 64.

Contrary to this instruction in an old Pfaff service manual, we will not be dousing any machine in any amount of kerosene.

I bought this 100% linen in Paris & paired it with a shirtdress pattern from the 10/24 Burda magazine.

Despite looking like a basic belted shirtdress at first glance, the tie is integrated into the dress pleats itself! Very clever drafting. 👏

A dark purple upholstery velvet fabric with regular checks is laid on a cutting table with a measuring tape on top.

A neatly folded pile of around twenty fabrics is on a yellow sofa. The fabrics are mostly shades of either blue grey, or dark brown, but a brightly red embroidered fabric can also be seen.

A stack of fabrics in a box, with felts on top of a brown and black jacquard with some yarn and napkins just seen.

A brown faux fur fabric is folded on a table, but a rectangular piece has been cut out and placed back in its hole, showing that a triangular piece has been removed from the middle of the fabric.

I’ve now measured, labelled, and catalogued all the usable fabrics from the auction (except the craft felt & enormous violin panels). Loads of usable garment fabrics for me to start planning for! 🥳

It’s annoying that so many had swatches cut… from the middle of the fabric!!? Whyyy 😩

My new ADHD hyper obsession has been unlocked lmao. 🐸 A friend of mine called it a plague of frogs 😂 Genuinely a great way to practice sewing curves though! I've been having a blast, if you couldn't tell. What color should I do next??? #sewing

Only people who know #sewing will understand how I was cursing my mom (RIP) for using an insanely high stitch per inch count on a seam she ran on a pillow insert 25 years ago that I now need to open, stuff with new fiberfill and reclose. **shakes fist**

Guess a again a jacket? Found a little store near home and had 10 cm zippers ! So..made a intergalactic fuzzy one using my supplies since wanna craft a lot again
