Using Proper Hand Sewing Tools Prevents Pain

How using proper hand sewing tools saved a finger!

I recently received a letter from someone who used my sewing methods and I thought you might enjoy it.

Here’s the letter:

Thelma,

After reviewing your system, I was inspired to start applying some of the things you talked about by replacing some of the missing buttons on my clothes.

I had a can full of extra buttons and a closet full of clothes missing them.  I didn’t have a clue that I needed a certain type of needle to sew on buttons until you discussed the different tools required for sewing.

Whenever a button came off of one of my favorite jackets,  I would replace the ones with a shank with a safety pin, and camouflage the others with a scarf or some other accessory.

Sewing on a button was difficult for me because I was afraid the needles would go through my finger, unaware that I should use a thimble, or a larger size needle.

I also sewed the buttons on too tight, which made my jacket front line up unevenly. I called you one Saturday night around 10:30 for help and you walked me through the process over the phone.

So, not only do you have a great system, but the personal attention you provided encouraged me to take out several other jackets missing buttons and put them on that night. I wore a jacket that I had not worn in a long time the next day.

Thank you,

Jennifer

Hopefully, you got the part where she said she was afraid the needles would go through her finger??  But, if she knew which notion to use for a specific job, then her using proper hand sewing tools would prevent serious pain.

Looks like I was able to help her just in time.

Now, I doubt your wardrobe situation is as severe as what Jennifer describes in her letter.  But I wanted to show you how my breakthrough fashion sewing system can encourage you to use tools you may have been afraid to use before so you can wear figure-flattering clothes you’ve not worn before.
