#67: Zoe and Julia Sew with Reclaimed Denim
from Check Your Thread: Sewing More Sustainably · host Zoe Edwards
Back in August, myself and friend-of-the-podcast Julia Hincks attended a class where we explored the possibilities of denim reclaimed from unwanted jeans. As predominantly garment sewers, Julia and I were encouraged out of our comfort zone at craft studio Made & Making, and nudged into the realms of homeware and accessories. In this little episode, we share what new skills we learned, and what we came home with… Support the podcast over on Patreon! Sew a pan stew or hay madam!

She previously featured on Ep. #10: Overlockers & Coverstich Machines with Julia Hincks Ep. #27: Zoe & Julia go Rag Rugging Ep. #53: First Birthday / Ask Me Anything with Zoe, Julia & Naomi If you haven’t already, make sure you listen to Ep. #26: Harvesting Materials with Eliu Hernandez.
