Stitch Found

The machines that made our clothes

Vintage sewing machines and textile tools: identification, restoration, and the histories behind the badges.

What we cover

Stitch Found covers vintage sewing machines and textile tools. Coverage is organised into 6 sections: Costs, Features, Guides, Industry, Maintenance, Reviews. There are 73 articles published so far.

How we work

Articles are written to be useful to someone actually doing the thing: specific, checkable, and honest about what varies by situation. Where a piece touches regulated work, it says so rather than implying the reader can skip a professional.

We correct mistakes rather than quietly editing them away. If a correction changes the substance of a piece, the article says what changed.

Following along

Every article appears in the RSS feed, which is the best way to follow the site without an account or a newsletter.
