Episode 7: You Know, You Could Patch Those

Listen Later

In this episode, we discuss designing digital prints, grading seam allowances, sewing for potty training, some really interesting jeans, and Caroline does some sewing. Note: Since recording this, we've realized that we probably misinterpreted the grading seam allowances question, and will re-answer it in a later episode (probably episode 10).
