For someone to think that RTW sewing is the gold standard of technique shows a lack of knowledge regarding sewing at all. I do not aspire to sew like they did in the factory I worked in many years ago , who made a quality garment, BTW. <br /><br />If I have learned anything in my fifty years of sewing it is that there are many good ways to accomplish the same task. Sewists need to be openminded to techniques and try them all. Only then can you decide which works best for you. And if what works best for your garments is not the same as what works best for mine, that is fine, totally fine. We need to understand and respect each others various ways of doing things. If the results are great, that is all that matters. Now if the results are poor and the work haphazard, that's another story...........Bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672695141031447916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3171393543419365098.post-66726309578642251822014-02-05T16:01:10.318+01:002014-02-05T16:01:10.318+01:00I was thinking the same thing Audrey!

For example, I know of 3 or 4 different techniques for making vent pockets, but I use only one as it suits me best; each of us sews differently, but I don't think it matters as long as we make beautiful and neat garments.Ana Stepalicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04938418843936123660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3171393543419365098.post-12244483055099361542014-02-05T15:58:46.790+01:002014-02-05T15:58:46.790+01:00Valuable 2 cents Naan, thanks for commenting!Valuable 2 cents Naan, thanks for commenting!Ana Stepalicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04938418843936123660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3171393543419365098.post-38274789619081702132014-02-05T01:01:44.862+01:002014-02-05T01:01:44.862+01:00Techniques used for RTW were often developed for t...Techniques used for RTW were often developed for the specialized equipment and processes used in garment making factories, in order to maximize output while minimizing material and labor costs. I wouldn't expect them to be the only way to do something or the best one for a home sewer. I have learned so much by being open minded and trying techniques that are different than the ones I was taught and used in the past.

We all have different body shapes and sometimes in order to have one pattern look equally as nice on various body shapes, a little bit of tweaking is necessary. What is important is having a basic idea of how something is done, then be guided by the measurement and body type of who will be wearing what you will be sewing to determine how and where to tweak it......that is my 2 cents of course.NAAN POCENhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15879767490495403371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3171393543419365098.post-11365967415127209612014-02-03T07:55:31.904+01:002014-02-03T07:55:31.904+01:00New techniques have been used that helps people to...New techniques have been used that helps people to know which suits on them and which doesn't.
