Thanks ThreadBanger

Imagine my surprise after returning from a week of Thanksgiving fun to see that Try Handmade was mentioned on ThreadBanger.

It’s a great article on the virtues of buying handmade, but hey, preaching to the choir here! They point out the beautiful MyStudio bag which I still covet! Check it out — it’s a good read.

ThreadBanger is also a great place to go to learn to sew, well, pretty much anything, and their video episodes are fun and addictive. If you get stuck on a project, they even have a forum you can turn to.

Threadbanger is a network for people who love to DIY, recreate, refashion and craft. Forget about corporate stores, we’re here to help you create and find your own style! From our episodes, forum and blog to our newsletter and contests, there is something for everyone. Our goal is to bring together people who can share their ideas, tips and advice with others and help make the world more fashionable – Threadbanger style!
