Introducing: The Fold Line

  The Fold Line is an online creative community forum for makers in the craft world. A perfectly formed, unified home for quilters, embroiderers, fabric designers, dressmakers and toy makers.

The Fold Line manages to feel fresh, modern, relevant and above all, accessible for people of all levels of skill. Lead by a desire to unite the different kinds of sewers under one proverbial roof, The Fold Line has […]
