I’m using a cheap projector off BangGood on top of a camera tripod. There’s a bit of set-up time every time I want to cut some fabric since I can’t mount it to the ceiling but it’s still way quicker than printing, taping, and cutting pdf patterns!
This cute raccoon brushed French terry was turned into a Tilly and the Buttons Billie Sweater.

  • After printing and taping together several patterns before cutting out, I basically stopped buying digital sewing patterns. Life is too short. I went back to printed commercial patterns. I have found the use of projectors for this really intriguing, but my sewing closet doesn’t really have an easy/good place I can mount a projector to use. I can understand the appeal, though! I think that if I have to haul it out of storage every time, I’ll just never use it.
