Sew-organised-style – Details, episodes & analysis

Saremy of SewSewLive and was on the podcast in November 2020. Saremy is number 17 in the Top 20 Countdown. 

While you can find Saremy on Instagram, you’ll always find Saremy teaching on YouTube. She’s industry trained and Saremy has a really full commitment to providing great teaching content in her sewing school.

On her Instagram account, she posts her weekly schedule.

Saremy provides an amazing community space for curios sewists of all abilities and it’s free to join her sewsewguild.com

On Wednesdays she funs a live stream sewing a project from cutting to finish. That’s a huge commitment but so valuable to improve your own sewing skills from an industry professional.

Saremy started her sewing channel in 2018 and she’s almost hit 2 million views, with over 730 videos.

Let’s go back and hear how Saremy was building her ability to provide great sewing content to us in the sewing community.

Suzy, Sue and Hélène are the Make a garment a month or Magam sewalong team who's podcast was published in July 2020. Suzy and Sue and Hélène gave their time to tell us about how Magam sewalong began and what they do to keep this initiative running. Magam Sewalong is number 18 in the Top 20 Countdown.

You would have noticed that since 2020, they have had guests to run this challenge each month and with a theme. Love a good theme. They’ve had about 37 guests.

Here’s an interesting fact. They try not to count entries, but they’ve have had over 8,000 posts.

Sue said ‘People love the refashioning/sustainable themes, but also any theme that allows them to work it into their monthly sewing.’

This Check Your Thread Podcast episode #54 is the first of two featuring a conversation with Swedish-Australian designer Birgitta Helmersson.

Known in the sewing community as a zero waste (ZW) pattern designer, Birgitta also produces a range of ZW clothing which she sells from her shop/studio in Malmö. Prior to this, Birgitta had a diverse and convoluted career in fashion design, costume, alterations, pattern cutting and garment manufacture, which makes for a fascinating tale that we’ll hear in this episode. We also learn what sparked her interest in ZW design, the route she took to adopting ZW practices in her own business, and why Birgitta transitioned into producing sewing patterns for her designs as well as physical garments.

Diane is the creator of Style Falcon.

How Diane found a suitable fit model and why she established the name Style Falcon are some of the topics Diane discusses in her first podcast for SewOver50.

She's a home sewer, writer, researcher, wife, daughter, sister, friend and poodle mama.

She lives in in New Haven, Connecticut, USA.

As Diane's says, 'I'm the visionary and creative force behind Style Falcon, but I don't do it alone. I work with a skilled professional team - a patternmaker, a grader, an illustrator and a graphic artist - to bring Style Falcon patterns to you.

The patternmaker is Christine Groom, owner of ZigZag Designs, a pattern company and custom couturier in California. Christine has a degree in Fashion and Apparel Design. She really understands how to design for mature figures. Her expertise makes each Style Falcon pattern work.'
