Hello, world! How’s it going?
For those of you who didn’t know, I am an avid seamstress.
I’m also an “old-fashioned” seamstress.
Yeah, I’ve never used a sewing machine in my LIFE. They scare me…
But my hand-stitching is really, really straight and tidy if I do say so myself…
My mother taught me to sew. I owe ALL I’ve learned to her.
Anyhoo… let’s move on…
5 tips every aspiring seamstress should know
1. ALWAYS wear your hair up
2. Taking measurements is crucial
3. Patience is a virtue
4. You’re going to accidentally poke or cut yourself… many times…
5. Practice makes perfect
• Do you like sewing?
• Hand-stitch or machine?
Wow, awesome I hand stitch too!!! Great tips! I have a sewing machine but don’t use it XD

It’s really fun because you can make them any size. I’ve always wanted to do embellishments. I have nothing to embellish though.. 😛

I think I prefer hand stitch coz I’m really really scared that someday, I’ll accidentally run my hand under the machine thingy *shivers* But I’m not too good at sewing.
