10 Sewing Habits to adopt in 2020
I made a new video over on my Yoututbe channel last week and I am so pleased that people are excited about the topic of new sewing habits! I actually wrote an article for Sew Mama Sew a few years ago about this very subject. That website is no longer around so I decided to add the article to my own blog since I felt like it was an important subject.
Lately I have been thinking a lot about habits- both forming good habits and breaking bad ones. Habits are such an interesting part of our lives and the good ones help us get through the day with our heads still on straight. I work hard not only on my own habits but also on my kids- brush your teeth, make your bed, do your homework, pick up your clothes, put your dish in the dishwasher, use a tissue, use a napkin (not your shirt) etc! It honestly wears me out- like what really matters?

I absolutely refuse to do alterations for people, much to his annoyance I won’t even alter the hems on my husband’s trousers (I would also be terrible at this and don’t want to make him upset). I do only sew what I like but have to admit to feeling under pressure from certain friends that all of their presents from me should be handmade as they have been for so many years.
The last time I tried to hem pants they turned into shorts! That was a long time ago! But, still that’s a chore I won’t do.
