Seam Allowance - Make 25% of Your Own Clothing - 2nd Sunday of Month

Take the pledge! To make (at least) 25% of your own clothing.

Whether you are already making 25% of your own clothing and would like to take your process to the next level or you are new to making and would like the support of the group towards making 25% of your own clothing, all are welcome.

Clothing provides a way to keep warm and as a means of expression. Making your own clothing can be an outlet to use your creativity and a way to build confidence by learning new skills. It can also be a means to affect social justice and to impact the environment in a positive way by supporting locally-grown and created textiles.

Every process used in the creation of textiles and clothing are welcome: knitting, sewing, weaving, felting, crocheting, etc. Check out the Seam Allowance Blog, to read about how Seam Allowance was started, why it was started, and more!
