Sewing Through the Ages

        Wow, sewing has changed!  Today when you sew a garment, you want it to look "store bought".  It needs to look like something you would pick off a rack and want to buy.  The construction methods are not what they taught in the 50's or 60's.  Today's tools are available for faster, easier assembly.  The methods are streamlined and not necessarily the steps that are indicated in a commercial pattern.  Sewing machines are easier to use.  They are so easy, you can concentrate on construction and not the function of the machine.  Today people sew for the satisfaction of creating with our hands- something beautiful!  We want to have something unique and not compromise in color or design details.  You can choose quality fabrics that will LAST.  This makes it all worth it!

COMPARISON CHART:


Put yourself into the chart.  Are you finding yourself mainly on the left hand side?!  Update your tools and methods- it will surprise you!  Not only will you sew more quickly, but you'll love the way your final product turns out!
