Sewing Quiz! - Just For Fun

Last Christmas we posted a Sewing Quiz here on sussexseamstress.com, and on our facebook and instagram pages. But those posts are hard to find here in the future, so we thought we’d share it permanently on this blog post so that more people can have a bit of fun.

Below you will find an image with 8 cryptic clues, each representing a sewing term. See how many you can work out!

If you’re looking for a more traditional multiple-choice sewing quiz then try our Sewing Quick Quiz.

If you’re looking for a different kind of quiz, then also check out our Sewing Crossword Puzzle.

Note for Americans : A couple of these clues are for the British version of sewing terms that are different in the USA. By all means have a go, but keep that in mind.
