ABOUT SEWING WITH NUMBERS
Sewing With Numbers is a newsletter hosted on Substack about sewing, math and how to draft your own sewing patterns. Through simple pattern drafting exercises, I'll show you how fun, useful and empowering math can be. Every 8 to 10 weeks, I feature a different drafting project, with each lesson building upon the learnings from previous ones. (This pdf booklet is a bundle of all the posts needed to draft one project.) The newsletter goes out about once a week with topics such as drafting exercises and design variations.
