Sigrid Sews Jan 16, 2023

Show notes

Sigrid sews and knits and you may have been following her blog for many years. In 2022 Sigrid's Instagram account was copied as a fake account by scammers. This has happened and keeps happening to many SewOver50 followers.

Be aware that fake accounts are created and the criminals behind these accounts prey on the followers of these accounts. If you are approached by what seems to be a fake account, let the actual person (account owner) know and then report the fake account to Instagram and then block it, for your safety and for the safety of your sewing friends.

When reporting fake accounts on Instagram, if the fake account uses your name/handle/photos, this is a copyright infringement. Report the fake account for copyright infringement to Instagram as well as the fake account as a scam.

Tee Jay Lee is a regular client of Sewn Adaptive - Lynn and Alex - and he's given his time to talk about how the work that Lynn and Alex do keeps him wearing the clothes he loves. You can hear the Sewn Adaptive podcast we published last year.

As a sewist, we have the skills to tailor and tweak clothes for ourselves and our loved ones. The work Lynn and Alex have been doing on Instagram that shows how they adapt clothing for people who need their clothes adapted is really appreciated by their clients. Tee Jay is one of their regular clients and this is his story. He was born and raised in California and Tee Jay was in the dance scene and is now helping dancers with his OT skills. Being able to wear the fashion he wants to wear is made accessible for him through the tailoring Lynn and Alex do for him.

Miriam Dec 05, 2022

Show notes

Miriam has been helping Ruth Collins get the word out about top down center out method and it's easy to understand why when you hear Miriam's sewing story.

Miriam was encouraged to sew through 4H programs.

Miriam has a phD in English and she immediately realised Ruth is a scientist by how Ruth was communicating about Top Down Center Out method. She tells us about her experience of using a dress form to get good fitting clothes but this meant Miriam had to make the dress form fit her body shape.

You'll hear how Miriam describes Top Down Center Out method as 'body agnostic'.

Marja-Liisa Nov 28, 2022

Show notes

When you look a Marja-Liisa's Instagram feed, you'll not know she has only been sewing her own clothes or the last 2 and a half years.

In 2019 Marja-Lisa found The Avid Seamstress patterns at Liberty in London and that is when she began to think about sewing her own clothes. At the start of the first lockdown, and after watching a few episodes of the Great British Sewing Bee, she decided to try sewing clothes.

When Marja-Lisa first tried to sew her first dress, she used a very old bedsheet to learn the construction process involved before she cut into her Liberty of London fabric.

Since then she has become a pattern tester and helped out SewOver50 and managed a guest post on Instagram.
