“My biggest sewing challenge is : Not knowing a lot about different types of fabric, and even though I follow the pattern suggestions, I am still at a loss for the most part for the FEEL of the fabric; I am one of those persons, who needs to feel the fabric which would match with the pattern? (hard to explain) and often am hesitant to purchase said fabric and just use what I have at hand. Can’t exactly go into a fabric store and start ‘touchy-feely’, although I have to the weird looks of other customers/employees. And I look right back-because most of them do not know either! Thank goodness, for Pixie Packs !! Great question.
My biggest sewing challenge is button holes. I have watched the videos etc but still seem to have issues as my button hole foot is challenging to determine it’s size due to its shape .
My biggest sewing challenge is finding time to do everything I want to get done and staying organized!
My biggest sewing challenge I’d keeping my work space organized.
My biggest sewing challenge is sewing slippery fabrics.
