Recently moved to a new place and haven’t found a good spot for a permanent setup yet.

    This is something I’m recently struggling since I discovered the availability of patterns online.

    I’ve been learning to draw bespoke patterns from scratch and the lack of reference points for measurements on most of the available stuff throws me off.

    I have considered something like this but I don’t know, seems too much set up in my tiny workshop for something I’m not sure I’ll use often enough.

    PD: I love the McGyvering involved in the photo

      The MacGyver variant took some time to setup, but if you can find a way to permanently mount it as I had in my old flat then it’s actually very quick to start :)

      Still I get the reluctance. I was at the point where I thought of getting a printer and then decided for the projector instead. It’s faster and produces less waste (speaking more of the fabric than the paper here).

      If you got a dedicated workshop (little bit of envy here, I’d love that) then you could just mount it to the ceiling, thereby it takes up no additional space
