Summary: This week’s guests are Kate and Rachel from The Fold Line!<br> <br> It’s hard to imagine the sewing community before The Fold Line went live in 2015. Now it is our go to for anything you should desire in the sewing world from searching for the best sewing pattern for your needs to catching up with what the sewists are making in their weekly Sew Reporter and reviews and making a lot of friends along the way – it really is the hub of the sewing community.<br> <br> We met Kate and Rachel at the same time as we met for the first time – at a sewing meetup held by Simplicity with a May Martin (best known as the judge of Series 1,2 & 3 of The Great British Sewing Bee) workshop. All four of us were very new to meetups and a tad nervous and when we found each other Megan and I excitedly heard about their plans to start a ‘sewing community website’! So getting them on the podcast sofa was always high on our priorioties.<br> <br> We talk to them about life before The Fold Line, how they met and started their business before quickly moving onto the day to day life and trials and tribulations of dealing with many different aspects of the sewing world from the small businesses to the everyday sewer.<br> <br> So come join us to talk about sewing tents and the fears of filming from the middle of Oxford Street and sew much more!<br> <br> ********<br> <br> This episode is sponsored by Cotton Reel Studio, who are a beautifully curated fabric, haberdasher, pattern and knitting online shop.<br> <br> Their fabric is chic and stylish – Laura has impeccable taste – check out her blog and website www.cottonreelstudio.com<br> <br> We have another amazing discount code for you…<br> <br> Use BREW15 for 15% off everything in the shop until Friday 6th July.<br> <br> ********<br> http://www.stitchersbrewpodcast.co.uk/ https://www.instagram.com/stitchersbrewpodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/stitchersbrewpodcast https://twitter.com/stitchersbrew<br> <br> We'd love to hear from you: hello@stitchersbrewpodcast.co.uk<br> +++ Theme song created by Stephen Ellis<br> +++ Podcast edited by Gabby Young and Stephen Ellis
