But also, whatever inspires you and is fun to teach! I’ve been enjoying your tik toks so much even when it’s not something I would make. I still learn a lot about different techniques that I can use to make other garments

Wisdom on buttons/zippers would be great, alongside crafting inspiration! I've been sewing for a while and most closures still make me nervous haha

I’d like to learn some basic stuff. I have a hard time making sure my stitches are straight. In fact, I have a hard time making sure I cut out my pattern straight 😖 idk how to do it right…

I'm a total beginner and 100% out of my depth so any tutorials and tips for new sewists would be welcome! Though I second the comment from Denisse and agree that anything you feel inspired to share will be fun to watch!

Hi! Are the tshirt dress parties still happening? I tried to sign up from the link in my email, but the link was broken. Sounds like a blast! Thanks!

I’d love it if you built relationships with fabric stores and suppliers that are willing to give community members a small discount. Any little bit helps these days. Essentially, you’d have a password protected page that members could access and then click through to the shops and buy their goods with a code or affiliate link. I used to manage affiliate programs so this kind of thing is very common. I bet the smaller stores based on textile waste reduction would love to partner.
