Spent an enjoyable few hours making a model of a Seam Sampler for my textiles products analysis course. The students will stitch the model seams by hand and gain some ancient but still relevant sewing skills while also making their own reference guide to identify seams.

Hi #fediverse this is my #introduction post. I quit social media on Nov 9th, 2016 to get out of the distortion field and found tons of time (even with 5-8 #wordpress projects). I am a Gen Xer who enjoyed using telnet to get to the Iowa Bulletin Board (ISCA) back in the 1990s but not much since. My day job is #textile science professor in a #fashion program in a #HEc department (I see neither #homeec nor #homeeconomics are trending). My hobbies include #sewing #knitting #needlearts #slowfashion
