I Can

This is My “I Can” For Sewing, What’s Yours?

by CTBaird

This is my “I Can” for sewing, do you have an “I Can”?

People often say to me, “Why sew when you can buy clothing so reasonably?’

Well my answer to that is….

When I sew for myself

I can get the fit right. Not everyone, actually very few really, are the stock standard measurements you find on the racks.

Have you noticed how each year “they” seem to change the sizing?

When I sew for myself

I can make it in the colors that suit me and I prefer, not the colors the manufacturer decides.

When I sew for myself

I can make it in the fabrics I like, better quality, better fabrics, I can use natural fibres that breathe in our hot summers and keep me warmer in the winters.

When I sew for myself

I can have an individual style but still keep in the fashion trend for the season, I don’t like to see myself coming or walk into a room and there is my “twin”, if you know what I mean.

When I sew for myself

I can afford to make up my basics in good quality fabrics and get that good line and fit.

When I sew for myself

I can save so much money by doing all of the above.

So that is my “I Can” list what’s yours?

Even if you don’t think your sewing is good enough, the way to correct that is, to practice, keep at it and in no time you will find you have improved. Start with simpler styles, there is nothing like a classic style and they are less fussy, good fitting and always wearable.

You may find there are techniques you are not sure of, you can find many of these in our eGuide SewMoreForU.
