I know this video is long, but.... I could not fit all of the information into a 10 minute video, so it is what it is, I wanted to make sure you see some examples and reasonings behind why I do certain things.

[@lucialiguori2219]

No problem for the length! We are in a world were everything 'must' go fast! You give me/us the time to learn! I enjoyed every seconds of your explanationt! Thank you!

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

@@lucialiguori2219 Lucia, thank you so much!

[@vivenna]

Another immensely valuable video! Thank you so much for putting in so much time and effort to create these clear and visually appealing explanations! :)

Hi, I’m a 59 year old beginner sewer who fell upon your videos by chance when browsing and I’m so happy that I did. (I hated sewing when I was younger, because of a sewing teacher I had at school!) I absolutely love your detailed instructions and the video shots are so clear and easy to understand. I’ve been sewing for almost a year now - simple things for the home and some easy bags (generally, square/rectangle based stuff) and I’ve not had the courage to feel I was capable yet of moving on to clothes. However, your enthusiasm and explanations have made me change my mind and I can’t wait to get started on some simple tops and T-shirts. Thank you so much. 😊

[@Suecanadian]

Thanks. This video was really helpful

[@StunningEmu]

I got everything mastered with sewing except for necklines and zippers. Thank you for this video🥰

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

My pleasure! I think partially it is the stress when it comes to necklines and zippers, cause often it is one of the last steps and that anxiety of getting it right can sometimes be overwhelming. Here's a detailed video on the invisible zipper - kzbin.info/www/bejne/hICtpotsmdSDaLs

[@StunningEmu]
