Oh, and as I understand it, it is better to sew wool with wool and linen
with linen. I have not sewn much with wool and that mostly
experimenting with my handspun with little real success. I use cotton
thread mostly. I want the sewing thread to be weaker than my fabric as
I would rather resew than patch. I have heard that polyester and poly
core can saw though wool in time so a avoid those. I have no experience
with competitions. I avoid them like the plague (personal quirk). I do
mostly hand sew my garb these days but that is because I like to hand
sew. Most people are not that crazy and I doubt if a lot of the garb
even in competition is hand sewn. Please, correct me if I am wrong.
