If you have already committed to sewing, keep in mind that it pays to be patient in this creative activity and not rush things. This is also true when choosing a sewing machine. Consult experienced friends and online forums, read carefully the sewing machine reviews, its features and accessories. In this case, it is worth investing both time and money.
Once you have your sewing machine, learn how to use it. Try everything and learn how to use it. Once you know the basic principles, don\’t start sewing your chosen piece. Chances of success are slim. First, pick up an old piece of fabric and experiment with basic stitches, lengths, and widths.
Once you have mastered the basics of sewing and are comfortable using a sewing machine, try making something simple like a cushion, blanket, or handkerchief. Once you are satisfied with your creations, try something larger.
In this case, familiarize yourself with the fabrics and yarns, and most importantly, find the pattern you need. As a beginner, you probably won\’t understand off the top of your head what to do. That is why it is better to learn with ready-made patterns and then invent crazy pieces. For example, the magazine BURDA and various websites have patterns for different types of clothing.
Then just automate your newly learned tasks and, voila, you can sew your creations, from T-shirts to jackets to bags. And when your friends find out about this, you\’ll be sewing for them as well as for yourself. So if you continue to do this, you won\’t regret it. It\’s just a matter of patience. After a while you will get the hang of it and you won\’t doubt yourself even if it seems difficult at first. Because everyone has broken a needle on a sewing machine before!
