SEWN Magazine with Michelle Morris

What happens when a sewing machine, a dozen magazines, and a whole lot of “wait, where’s the Black representation?” turn into a publishing dream? On Stitch Please, Lisa talks with Michelle Morris, founder of Sewn Magazine, about sewing, creativity, representation, and building the magazine she couldn’t find. Plus, a denim ceiling proves that when Michelle gets an idea, even the ceiling isn’t safe.
