✨ The first and most important step

It is recommended to sign up for a club or master & mdash; sewing class. Many novice masters miss this important point, making a big mistake. Of course, you can learn yourself from videos from the Internet or from magazines, but this will take more time, effort and material. Moreover, if you study at home using various unverified resources, you may not become a competent specialist.

✨ Selection of tools and equipment

For sewing products, you will need a set of different tools: from a sewing machine to pins and buttons. It is best to purchase comfortable devices for work from trusted manufacturers, and not focus on the number of operations. For a starter set of sewing machine functions, a straight stitch and a zigzag stitch are enough. You can buy an overlock separately for overcasting. With its help it is possible to make high-quality processing of fabric and seams. In addition to a sewing machine and an overlock, the beginner's kit includes: a measuring tape, special scissors for fabric, crayon, pins and an iron with steaming function.

✨ Fabric selection

The choice of material for the product must be approached responsibly. Poor quality or too thick fabric can ruin the shape of the garment. There are several ways to solve this problem. In every sewing store or atelier, many types of materials are presented, and sellers & mdash; consultants will help you choose exactly what you need. To begin with, you should use a lighter fabric in your work, since it is difficult for beginners to hold the line of the typewriter moving out of dense material.

✨ Choice of clothing model

One of the most common mistakes among novice seamstresses is choosing a too complex product model. The difficult process of sewing clothes such as jackets or tight jeans can discourage the desire and enthusiasm of the needlewomen after the first unsuccessful attempts. At the very beginning, it is better to choose simpler and easier options, because they have the opportunity to see progress and your mistakes.

✨ It will take time, patience and a desire to create

The most important thing & mdash; time and experience. For starters, do not force the sewing process into a certain time frame. Lack of experience makes you want to do everything faster, however, this will affect the quality of work. It is better to make two or three test stitches on an unnecessary piece of fabric and then sew them more beautifully on the product itself, rather than immediately make uneven stitches.

Often, after several mistakes and unsuccessful attempts to sew a beautiful product, many seamstresses abandon what they started and lose interest in the craft. Definitely, perfect work will not work right away. But if you try for a long time, through trial and error, you will end up with high-quality and beautiful clothes.
