An Encounter with Sewing Frustration

- Even with all the sewing experience I have and successful garments I have made, I occasionally have frustrating experiences. Some projects don't turn out well, and in fact, I'll never wear the garment I discuss in this video. But I sure can learn from an experience like this by thinking about why it happened, how I deal with this kind of sewing frustration, and how I get myself sewing again.
Visit my website www.sarahveble... to learn about the many ways I offer support to garment sewers, from fitting to pattern work and design . . . and even coaching you through the ups and downs of garment sewing.
Thank you for relieving the knot of frustration that suddenly emerged in my stomach (just started sewing and there's been quite a few lessons taught in a very short period of time 😅).
There is a cream colored project made up with a similar pattern hanging in my laundry room as of yesterday afternoon along with my super frustrated feelings. Moved on to a pair of moderately full leg pants. Hopefully they’ll be a comfortable fit as I have really put a lot of thought, research and time into them. I’m feeling so grateful to have you and just a few others online to turn to for advice and to also listen to your unexpected experiences and thoughts. When disappointments happen I have learned tidy up a bit then to turn to my machine and smile. So grateful it still lets me sit along its side.
Thank you for sharing this video - not least its reassuring that even someone with your experience can get frustrated, and what to do to avoid and pick myself up after. ATM I have lost a lot of sewing confidence and listening to you is helping me to start to re think this.
I'm so glad my sharing my experience was helpful to you! I hope you get back into your sewing and can start to build your confidence again.
What’s a mock up?
