Learning how to create beautiful,
Learning how to create beautiful, neat, and strong stitches by hand is not always easy. Since hand-sewing is no longer considered a "basic life skill", we're often left on our own to try and figure it out, without any real guidance. I've been hand-sewing, both professionally and privately, for years, and I have learned so much from my teachers and years of experience and research. Today, I want to share with you my 5 tips to improve your hand sewing, without having to really sew anything.
Beginning with using a thimble (obviously...😂), I walk you through what types of sewing threads are best for hand sewing garments, and things to keep in mind for silk, cotton, and linen thread (hint: not all threads are created equal, and sewing thread quality and weight really matter!) Next, we talk about needles - sharps vs. betweens/quilters vs. embroidery, the quality of different needle brands, like John James, Colonial, Dritz, and others, and what size needles to look for! I also rant a bit and demonstrate how important sewing technique and basting are, and how they shouldn't be overlooked.
Hopefully, whether you're a beginner sewist, looking to improve your hand sewing skills, or feeling ready to take on a large 18th-century gown project by hand, hopefully, I have something in this video that will help you on your sewing journey!
