Episode 42—The Love of Vintage Patterns is in the Details
Today's guest is Cheryl Espinosa, owner of the Etsy store Aunt Honey's Estate. Cheryl talks about how her love of vintage sewing patterns led to the creation of her business. Not only does she sell vintage patterns, she sews from them as well. For Cheryl, the appeal of vintage patterns lies in the details—the design lines and fine finishing techniques that are absent from many of our modern designs. She also shares some of her tips for incorporating vintage patterns into your own sewing practice.
