- Great Sewing Chatter
I stumbled across this podcast a short while ago and I am so glad I did. The episodes are informative and inspiring delivered by two authentic individuals who have a fabulous combined knowledge and expertise. I’m a male sewist so, some of the girly stuff, is a bit off for me. Having said that, most of my sewing is for the women in my life! Happy sewing. 🫶🏻

Frequently Asked Questions About Stitching Tales
What is Stitching Tales about and what kind of topics does it cover?
Two experienced sewing creators share practical, hands-on guidance for home sewers and indie pattern businesses. Episodes typically mix technique deep-dives (fitting, pattern grading, darts, elastics, knits vs wovens) with real-world business realities (book projects, publishing timelines, pricing, marketing, burnout, and pivots). They emphasize approachable, experience-backed advice, celebrate craft skills, and frequently discuss community-building, education, and sustainable practices. A standout aspect is their transparent, down-to-earth approach to both sewing technique and running a small sewing-focused business, making this a strong fit for makers seeking actionable how-tos and entrepreneurial insight.
