I’m just beginning my MYOG journey and have found this podcast incredibly helpful especially the episodes with Matt from Red Paw.
One show idea I’d love to hear: an overview of the technical fabrics currently available from Ripstop by the Roll. As I’ve listened to past episodes, I’ve picked up lots of great nuggets about fabrics you’ve used for specific projects, but it would be amazing to hear a big-picture breakdown of what’s available, the best use cases for each fabric, and what you persona... more
This is one of the few podcasts I’ve ever heard that’s fun without being in any way frivolous. The topics and questions are well thought out and hit a huge range of needs and abilities. In many cases, it’s info you simply can’t get anywhere else. If you’re in any way sewing or gear adjacent, this is just a must listen.
It is so great have a resource of real MYOG learners. This pod is not presented in a “I know how to do it…so do this” kind or format. Rather it is from real life trials and learning from mistakes.
This pod makes a community of MYOGers accessible at a distance.
Thanks to you Rippers, It’s so helpful to hear the successes and failures as I am on my MYOG journey!!
I don’t know why it took me a year to get around to listening to podcast episodes, but it’s great. Good hosting, great energy and all around nice to listen to while writing, working, driving or making.
If I say that I’ve listened to each episode of Ripstop on the Record once through, it would be a lie. I listen ALL the time. Seriously. All. The. Time. On. Repeat. They’re always on when I’m sewing. So I’ve been through each episode multiple times - one right after another. It doesn’t matter that I’ve heard them all before. I’m going to just keep on listening.
Here are just a few of the reasons I continue to listen to ROTR on repeat:
1. I have learned more than I ever thought I would or could... more
