New #sewing machine is the fanciest shit I ever worked with. If this is a mid-tier Singer I can't even imagine what a Janome/Juki/Husqvarna would be like 🤯

Considering I used a Brother JX2517 for 10+ years there's quite a learning curve... Wish me luck.

A pink plaid 3/4 circle skirt with an unfinished hem hangs in front of a china cabinet.  The skirt has bright pink strawberry shaped pockets with floral “seeds”, green edging at the top, and green gingham leaves. In the background you can see a vintage ticket marked “NASA Tours” on the upper left and bits of china within the cabinet.

Halloween accomplishment!

Lots of trial and error for the costume this year, but although it’s not the original vision I think strawberry skirt turned out well so far.

It’s hanging out the hem today. On to the candy bag construction!

Sewing folk of Bluesky. Would you mind sharing your favourite cotton thread brand for using on a sewing machine? One with reduced fuzz and breakage?

I'm based in UK/Ireland

A small banner on a white table reads “Love” in blue floral striped letters on a floral background.  You can see roses and sunflowers and lilies peeking out from behind the words.

I haven’t been making things, I’ve been trying to organize things. This is my impulse in times of stress, to make order, one step above sleeping through all of it. But I hope I shall make something soon. Until then, love to you. May we make things better today. #sewistsofbluesky #art #textileart

Jumpsuit lying on table and turned open to show heavy cotton with ugly pattern which has been used for facing pieces. Inside raw linen edges are bound with bias tape as a robust fray prevention mechanism. Also there is a partially cropped cat standing on top of the jumpsuit bc he was being very needy while I took the photo.

#PeppermintJumpsuit mods: swapped back zip for front buttons, added pockets, made sash wider & beefier w. interfacing. Not perfect (especially the gaping pockets!) but I’m quite pleased with it over all & interior finishing should keep the linen in good shape #GarmentSewing #SewistsOfBluesky

A banner in Trans flag colors sits on a white table with a tape measure in the background. It reads “Love” in pink letters appliquéd on a blue floral circle with a pink and white border.  The background fabric is a brown, pink, and blue geometric floral print on white. A white ribbon serves as a hanger for the banner.

A psychedelically colored banner sits on a white table with a tape measure, buttons, and crocheted tablecloths in the background.

The banner reads “Resist”, in green letters appliquéd on a circle of daisy fabric with a background of 1970s style print flowers in hot pink, lime, yellow, and day-glo orange. There is a bright pink ribbon at the top.

Interested in your own banner? DM me here. Ships from the Chicago area.

I thought about deleting potentially dangerous posts from my social media accounts but no one sees them anyway so here is your reminder to #Resist

I thought the lining was too cute to not be seen so I added a little patch to the pocket. #Sewing #SewistsOfBluesky #ArtistApronDress #CharmPatternsByGertie

Making a low-slung midi skirt with tiny pleats, for which I have not so much a pattern as the concept of a plan. It’s fine though because I’ll be sewing these pleats for another 17 years & can ponder next steps #SewSky #GarmentSewing #SewistsOfBluesky

Snowing outside. Tea in the cup. MPR Classical Saturday Cinema on the radio. Seamwork Joss pants in progress. I'm tuning out the news today and trying to focus on my joy and calm to recharge.
