Well for me I would rather enjoy wearing my unfitted clothes with pride that I made them instead of buying the fitted ones from the market.
Am sure you also find some form of joy making them, let your be complete when you rock you dress into the streets.
Seeings requires that one purchases a whole lot of items as you have experienced.
We need large tables and comfortable stool or seats to ease back pain whe we sew for long.
Here it is very strange (in my eyes) fabric is very expensive and clothes are very cheap, so sewing is only sustainable if one buys bargain fabric or if the handmade clothes are better than what I can buy… a dilemma because I really want to sew, but if I make something unwearable (which can happen with my meagre skills) its so wasteful and I cannot justify to loose so much money.
And yes to the purchases. I fear I am too old to kneel for hours on the floor 😱 My husband is so lovely and already bought some wood and table-legs and will make me a bigger table for the sewing machine (happpyyyyy)
Am happy to hear these, would be seeing you work on the table next
