Christine Millar (aka Sewstine) is a machine embroidery wizard! 🪄

In this week's episode, we ask her all of our burning machine embroidery questions. How does she design her own embroidery files? How long do the embroideries take? What stabilizer does she use? Does she have to babysit the machine the whole time? She answers them all, plus tells us about costuming events, her fave features of historical costumes, and her path to historical costuming.⁠

Have you ever done machine embroidery?⁠

I am working on the upcoming release of my insect magnets! 🦋
Today, I finished 5 purple moths (I put the finished ones on my girls’ cage hehe), I will get started on the beetles tomorrow!

There will be 5 of each model available for the first drop. I’m hoping to release them on Sunday. I will keep you updated!

#sewing friends, I'm somewhat incapacitated and watching cozy sewing videos on YouTube is one of the things I can do today, with my limited energy and brain power.

I have basically watched Bernadette Banner's channel up and down.

Do you have recommendations for costuming/sewing channels? Bonus points for queer creators.

I am not doing good at time management or indeed any approximation of knowing what day it is, but today was the last day to drop off art for the Somerville Open Studios and I managed to get this done just in time. Despite 1) running out of black thread (howwwww) and 2) goofing up the insignia the first time. Still. She looks good.

I probably did not need to agonize as much as I did over whether it’s the right shade of teal/blue but who am I even if I can’t overthink things.

Appliqué embroidery on a thrifted T-shirt which I made after punk singer Poly Styrene died in 2011.
This was before I even owned a sewing machine so I had to stitch the letters on by hand.
I can't remember where the green satin came from but I still have the spool of neon yellow thread. 😂
The T-shirt doesn't exist anymore but I salvaged the embroidery and turned it into a patch.

I made a new dress from wool my grandmother bought many (many) years ago. A combination of the Ashland dress bodice and Misses’ fit and flare skirt (m7599) with added pockets and the tiniest pleat. Also, topstitching. That hem is very long. #sewing

Really trying to be extremely creative to add in at least some of the gold tones, as my gold ribbon is the wrong weight and texture to go with the rest... The hat doesn't entirely need it, but I want it to be more bumblebee coloured than it is!
Some tiny sewing.

#Sewing & #Mending friends, I have a #question for you.

I have a top sheet with a ~25cm vertical tear inside the body of the sheet (i.e., it's landlocked).

I want to mend it in a good enough way. I'm **not going to sew it**, make it look pretty, etc. I just want to not stick my foot through it in the night.

Current best option: duct tape (which is probably not ideal).

Is there a fast, easy way to make a non-sewing fix? Like a fabric tape or something? 1/n
