🌩️ Unbelievable! The talented & warm-hearted #sewist @duckgoesoink has just been suspended—flagged as spammy, fake, or inauthentic. The most shocking part? A moderator reviewed and confirmed it. Automated or human—what the heck, @bsky.app? This is dampening my enthusiasm for this platform! #sewsky

📌I stumbled across this mind-blowing online archive of "La Femme de France", a French weekly fashion magazine that ran from 1915–26. It can be consulted on the BNF (National Library of France)🔗⬇️ The most exciting part: I spotted many #MinimalWasteDesign patterns! #fashionhistory #garmentsewing

Did I write a book mostly for myself to fill the gap in my wardrobe? Maybe... 👀😆 I just wanted to create pieces that truly fit my style, comfort, and needs—while reducing cutting waste as much as possible.
You’d have done the same, right?

My BF usually sews bike gear. For EOTY he decided to make his first-ever Tshirt using the diy book I just published. I feared he’d hate the experience and say my book is shit..
Spoiler: He said it might make a second version. We can marry now

Can’t quite believe it’s been 6 years since I released my 1st #zerowastepattern under the indie name MILAN AV-JC. This wrap dress still feels really special to me.
⬇️The pattern is available for free here. Ideal for beginners!

It's fascinating how #minimalwastedesign has been a part of fashion history for so long. I came across this Infinite Gore skirt design in the book Elizabethan Costuming (1550-1580). Just look at how much less fabric it uses compared to conventional gore skirts #sewing #garmentsewing #fashionhistory

@pinandstitch.bsky.social 's grandmother's sewing notebook inspires me to celebrate the most cherished legacy I have from my grandmother, Adèle—her sewing diploma. Feeling nostalgic about the time we spent knitting together 🕊🧶

Hi! I have tried creating a video feed but it deosn't collect the video I posted yesterday as a test even though the hashtag #garmentsewing is in the inclusions terms. It keeps saying it doesn't match any term. Any idea why? (I've just checked I have no language selected in parameters)

Throwback - prepping the cutting of a pair of zero waste trousers with my friend Charlène #zerowastesewing #garmentsewing

After two weeks of emotional paralysis, I’m finally opening up this Bluesky account. What better motivation than seeing a few peers who’ve already taken the leap? It was @goldfinch.design presence that ultimately convinced me there are some great connections & sewing content to build up here as well
