The Physics of Sewing
Great foundation information for sewing. It changed the way I see thread and how to use it properly.
I picked up a lot of useful tips. I appreciate knowing the "why's" of old wives tales, and seeing how much knowledge has been passed down to us. Great class!
Spending a week at Alabama Chanin School of Sewing is a bucket list item for me. So glad to see her on this platform.
But beyond the charm, she shared some truly valuable tips: how to “needle your thread,” why you should knot the cut end, the importance of “loving your thread” with your natural oils, how to tie a double knot, and even which thread works best. And the best piece of wisdom?
“Lazy thread, lazy girl.”
A sewing tip and a life lesson all in one!
Wonderful class which explains those "old wives tales" to be just as true today as they ever were !
The Chanin books are amazing ! I have the full set !!
