Sewing can be great but also daunting!
In this sewing vlog I am sewing the Aura Dress by Papercut Patterns and talking to you about why you should still choose to have a go at sewing even when you’re scared of getting it wrong.

Perfectionism in sewing is a dangerous mentality that will only leave you paralysed and will stop you from picking up a sewing project.
I am changing the way I am sewing and I encourage you to do that same.
Instead of focusing on the end result, focus on the beauty of sewing, the journey, the craft itself, and leave the end result alone, because by trying and doing your best, you will grow in your sewing skills and you will learn more than if you were stuck, frozen, by the fear of messing up.
How many of us have stashes of fabric and patterns that are untouched because we can’t get ourselves to pick something and just have a go?
My sewing videos have hopefully proved to you that messing up is an integral part of sewing. And it happens to the best of us.
But it’s better to get it wrong, to have some sewing fails, pick yourself back up, and learn a ton in the process, rather than be stuck in a vicious cycle of not wanting to give it a go, because of fear of ruining patterns and fabric.
Aside from the talk, I will show you the process of sewing a beautiful wrap dress, The Aura Dress by Papercut Patterns.
I sewed the pattern in size 3, and the fabric is a light weight viscose that I bought from an Instagram seller.
For this project I used a sewing machine, scissors, rotary cutter, cutting matt, clipping shears, seam ripper, iron, pins and interfacing.
Everything is filmed and edited by myself.
Hope you enjoy this Sewing Vlog❣️
