If you sew you know! Little pots and tins are the difference between mayhem in a sewing basket or peace and tranquility. Thanks #paperchase sale! #sewist #sew #sewersgottasew #sewersofinstagram #sewing #sewingkit #organising #stationary

Time for some real talk here sewers: Recently I have barely sewn. And today I decided to tackle my sewing section #mariekondo style. Honestly it is so refreshing and I am feeling a new lease of life sewing. I now have a massive bag of fabric to destash (either Ebay or on here) of stuff I know I will never wear or get round to making! I have streamlined my stash to a small bundle that I am now genuinely excited about taking into my wardrobe. Also pictured above is a box of scraps I collected thinking I will someday make use off. It's now been organised and a lot has been removed. I dont feel guilty for getting rid of it... basically it was clogging the creative process. I think as a sewer I held myself to a high standard of doing something better, of recycling and helping by doing my part... what I was actually doing is holding onto unnecessary junk and getting bogged down by it. I see a lot of things on here where people show the sheer size of their stash, I have often joked about it myself and thought that's just what sewers do. What I am suggesting it that you look at your own stuff with fresh eyes and maybe streamline it, or make the promise not to by more fabric till you use one from the stash... or something simple like finishing a project before completing a new one. I think sometimes we are our own worst enemies, we justify behaviours and then wonder why we cant move on creatively. I am not moaning about the sewing community, just I have learnt something valuable about myself today and would really like to represent a more minimalist ideal in our community that seems to be absent and not as celebrated Happy sewing guys x x x #sew #sewing #sewist #sewersofinstagram #sewersgottasew #destash #fabricstash #fabric #cleanout #minimalism #declutter

Why buy a dress when you can copy it and have fun decoding the pattern! . Bear with me guys as i have a bad back at the moment and sewing is sloooowwww. About a month of not doing much and then thinking i can cut a pattern on pain killers... only to make it worse after. Urgh. This seems okay and i think i can get away with cutting it on a table as apposed to the floor. Wish me luck and hopefully i will have some new clothes soon... 🤞🏻 . #sewing #sewer #sewersofinstagram #sewingpattern #selfdrafted #copycat #copycatpattern #memadepatterns #memade #diy #diyfashion #diywardrobe #memadewardrobe #plussize #fatsew #fatfashion
