Sewing After the Apocalypse

The Straight Stitch: A Podcast About Sewing and Other Fiber Arts.

Send us feedback about this episode!

Today’s episode is a bit tongue-in-cheek; I don’t expect there to be an apocalypse, but have you ever thought about how you might sew if the grid went down? People used to do it all the time, and we can learn from the past. This episode focuses on people-powered machinery—treadle sewing machines and handcrank sewing machines—and how to find and refurbish one for yourself.
