How much do you know, like really, deeply know, ab How much do you know, like really, deeply know, about sewing thread 🧵? 💙 Here is THICC topstitching thread and delicate, shiny rayon thread (good for embroidery/decorative applications, not seams). 💙 Turns out, there's A LOT to learn about thread, especially when it comes to thread weight and types of thread. 💙 There's a post up now (link in bio) that can help you get better at choosing thread for your next garment-sewing project. Check it out ✔️ 💙 #sewingisfun⁠ #sewinglovers⁠ #sewingismysuperpower⁠ #sewingissexy⁠ #memadewardrobe⁠ #imakemyownclothes⁠ #handmadestyle⁠ #garmentsewing⁠ #seamstresslife⁠ #homesewn⁠ #sewinglife⁠ #sewingcommunity⁠ #sewingblogger⁠ #sewingfun⁠ #sewsewsew⁠ #sewersgonnasew⁠ #sewingblog⁠ #sewingismytherapy⁠ #sewist⁠ #sewcialist⁠ #sewcialistsofinstagram⁠ #sewcial⁠ #instasew⁠ #instasewing⁠ #instasewers⁠ #isewmyownclothes⁠ #milwaukeesews⁠ #wisconsinsews
I'm going to file this under #WCW ❣️ @zoehong I'm going to file this under #WCW ❣️ @zoehong is a fashion designer and fashion educator who has a really great YouTube channel. 💙 This pic is a screenshot from a vid about her design process (vid is "Watch Me Design S2: Exploring Inspiration"). 💙 Anyhoo, if you are feeling stuck creatively in terms of what/how to sew, I HIGHLY suggest you check out this video. She makes a mind map, where she uses abstract concepts to inform sketches. 💙 It's so cool, guys. Her design touchstone word is "preposterous," and her design concepts explore this term in a bunch of cool ways. 💙 For example, in this pic she shows how hot air balloons inspired this concept of a parachute-y-ish gown-ish situation. 💙 I found her approach to concepting playful and filled with ease. I can't wait to try it the next time I feel stuck. 💙 Do you have a fave fashion/sewing/design YTer? 💙 #sewingisfun⁠ #sewinglovers⁠ #sewingismysuperpower⁠ #sewingissexy⁠ #memadewardrobe⁠ #imakemyownclothes⁠ #handmadestyle⁠ #garmentsewing⁠ #seamstresslife⁠ #homesewn⁠ #sewinglife⁠ #sewingcommunity⁠ #sewingblogger⁠ #sewingfun⁠ #sewsewsew⁠ #sewersgonnasew⁠ #sewingblog⁠ #sewingismytherapy⁠ #sewist⁠ #sewcialist⁠ #sewcialistsofinstagram⁠ #sewcial⁠ #instasew⁠ #instasewing⁠ #instasewers⁠ #isewmyownclothes⁠ #milwaukeesews⁠ #wisconsinsews
Y'all, I'm not a fan of hand sewing. I avoid it as Y'all, I'm not a fan of hand sewing. I avoid it as much as I can TBH. 💙 BUT - I recognize that at certain points in the garment-making process, ya gotta go analog on that shizz. 💙 To this end, I've figured out the bare minimum number of hand stitches in which I must have basic proficiency to sew clothes. They are: 🪡 Tailors tacks 🪡 Basting 🪡 Securing thread ends 🪡 Slip stitch 🪡 Catch stitch (which is pictured here - save for later!) 💙 On La Blog there's a post on how to create these essential five stitches (link in bio).
