Only one other person came. She's my friend and lives nearby. We did a little show and tell and chatted until a couple of minutes ago. Hopefully next week more will join. I'd love to get to know all you wonderful creative people!
Happy Thursday, I have always wanted to sew 🧵 the best I can do is hand stitch and even my mom giggles at my knots 🪢 🤦🏽♀️ I have a nice sewing machine collecting dust. I have to check the brand since it’s been a while but I want to create so many things. I love dresses 👗 with and without hoods and tops and dresses with pockets. I need a gowns in every color for the community I’m involved in. I’m scared of the needle on the sewing machine but I’m ready to face my fears. I know I said a lot but I’m tired of overthinking instead of being creative. I need to flow like water 💦
I have my students start by practicing sewing without thread on paper. Just draw some lines and stitch over them. This will give you practice in controlling the speed of your machine and learning to manipulate the fabric (paper) as it feeds into the machine.
Hi, it's been pretty quite on the community chat, so I'm going to issue a challenge for this month. If you're like me, you have started but not finished some sewing or craft projects. I like to call those UFO's (UnFinished Objects). Here's the challenge: finish one of your UFO's and post a picture of your finished project here in the commmunity chat. If you want to finish more than one, go for it!
