On today's episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast, we’re talking about hand sewing with my guest <a href='https://www.louisamerry.com/'>Louisa Soenstrom</a>.
 
Louisa considers garment-making skills to be deeply empowering. Louisa writes and teaches about patternmaking and hand stitching clothing. For most of a decade, she worked in technical design and patternmaking, most recently for Macy's and Eileen Fisher. Previous works have included a self-published book called <a href='https://www.louisamerry.com/hand-sewing-clothing-book'>Hand Sewing Clothing: A Guide</a>, as well as two seasons of “Patternmaking in Public Places,” an outreach project she started to democratize access to patternmaking skills. This year, Louisa is celebrating the August release of her newest book, <a href='https://amzn.to/47QFQ4D'>The Handsewn Wardrobe: A Complete Guide to Making Your Own Clothes, from Patternmaking to the Finishing Stitches</a>, in collaboration with Storey Publishing.
