Sewing

These are four sewing tips that I wish I had known when I first started sewing! Sewing can be a lot of fun, but there are definitely best practices and things that you should do to make sure that your garment comes out looking amazing and professional, and well fitting! Making sure that you were using good sewing tools, making sure that you are paying attention to the seam allowance, making sure you are using the right needle size for your fabric, and making sure you’re pay attention to all of the dots and notches! Do you have any sewing tips and tricks best practices? ##sew##sewing##isewmyownclothes##isewthings##sewingtiktok##sewtok##sewist##blacksewingnetwork##blacksewingtiktok##menwhosew

A pin hem is basically a beginners rolled hem because you dont have to mess around with different feet or have a fancy machine 🥰. It’s also the easiest way to make your sewing look professional and couture 💅🏼. This hem is perfect for lightweight, sheer or silky fabrics because it gets folded twice, and looks beautiful inside and out. If you’re wanting to use a pin hem on an edge with a curve, I recommend snipping the fabric in before folding as it lets some of the tension out. #teaganjacobs #fashiondesigner #sewtok #sewingtips #sewingtutorial #howtosew #sewingtricks #couturesewingtechniques

Ladder stitch, invisible stitch, whatever you call her, in my opinion is the easiest and cleanest stitch you can do to finish off a garment if you are required to hand sew a section. For me, I line a lot of my garments so this is the perfect way to close off the lining. It’s a simple stitch once you get the hang of it, just remember to go slow and be patient, you’ve got this! 😌 By far the most important step is to start by ironing your garment, if you want you can press the seams open too. Start by knotting your thread and bringing your needle towards you from the back. Now stitch across and up, then to the opposite side, parallel to your precious stitch and up again and through to you, then back to the other side. When the seam is open it should look like a ladder! Keep repeating this till you’ve closed your seam and pull the thread for a satisfying finish. Remember to knot your thread again once you’ve finished and that’s it!
