Today I visited a hipster heavy 'design center' of sorts and saw a cardholder that was clearly machine stitched. Asking the staff they claimed it to be handmade. When pressured she claimed that they used their hands when operating the sewing machine.  WTH? When is it not hand made? Personally I think using machines for burnishing is ok, cutting is questionable and sewing is plain not. Am I too old school?  What's your thinking on this?
