Curated by ITF
Curated by In the Folds - Issue 52
Are you ready to make clothes you will wear, love and cherish?
Curated by In the Folds has been a monthly resource designed to bring together patterns, techniques and thoughtful guidance in one place. Each issue has supported makers to build skills with intention rather than simply make more clothes.
Creating a handmade wardrobe you are proud of comes from learning, practicing and deepening your skills over time. With the resources in this final issue, along with access to our online community group, you will continue to grow a library of knowledge you can return to throughout your making journey. Our hope is that this collection empowers you to sew a wardrobe you truly love, one piece and one skill at a time. Explore the details below to see what is included in this final issue.

This Month's Project
The Final Fold is a celebration of every skill, insight and moment of curiosity that has shaped Curated since the first issue. Over 50 issues later, our members have learned to fit, draft, adapt, slow down, problem solve and enjoy the process of sewing. This last issue brings those lessons together not as a step by step garment pattern, but as a companion for your future making.
Whether you’ve been here for every issue, dipped into a few or you’re curious about exploring past releases, this archive is our ode to our sewing community.
This is our final Curated issue and your last chance to become a member and purchase any past Curated issues at a reduced price. Build your pattern library and skills at your own pace, take your sewing to the next level and enjoy having every resource ready when life allows.
Includes:
• A look back at our favourite issues, best tips and lessons learnt in our community from fitting a jumpsuit to mastering welt pockets.
• Our community shares their makes, insights and reflections of their Curated journey.
• Technical recaps that distil core skills from across the series including fitting foundations, seam finishes, handling knits, stabilising delicate fabrics, sewing shirts and coats.
• Mindset tools and journal prompts designed to help you plan, learn, reset and reconnect with your sewing practice.
• Troubleshooting guides, fabric tips, community Q&As and reflections on slowing down, repairing and building confidence.
• A look back at the patterns, techniques and thoughtful details that made Curated what it was and a guide to carrying those lessons into whatever you make next.
• Last chance to become a member and purchase any past Curated issues at a reduced price. Build your pattern library and skills at your own pace, take your sewing to the next level and enjoy having every resource ready when life allows.
