“Chekhov’s Law” of sewing machine equipment: if you leave your bobbin case out on the workbench in Act 1, it must get knocked onto the floor and scattered to all four corners of the room in Act 3. Pictured above: the tangled web I must unweave, now that I’ve scrounged them out of the dark crannies of my office. #sewingproblems #thread #bobbins #myglamorouslife https://www.instagram.com/p/CJC341wHn_q/?igshid=1fzkyy5pf4rh6

I never knew how many patterns I owned until I was cleaning put my craft/sewing area. I'm rocking 24 patterns. How many do you have? #cosplay #cosplayer #canadiancosplayer #cosplayprogess #craft #sewing #canada #sewingpatterns #sewingproblems #nevertoomany #motivation #mycosplaylife https://www.instagram.com/p/B85geB6Djrg/?igshid=14wj6awzijr33

Know what's frustratingly difficult and tedious? MAKING A FORM FITTING DRESS WITHOUT A DRESSFORM. Also difficult: modifying it to be STRAPLESS. I have been stabbed by so many pins...😂😭 #cosplay #cosplayproblems #sewing #sewingproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/B8RuiXplv1P/?igshid=fzxzvcfg1q93

Why is cutting out pattern pieces intimidating? #sewingproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/B2-2ggMFXLi/?igshid=mk91kq0cb8ai

I’ve been slaving away for 10 days straight to make a dress from a circa 1923 Butterick pattern. It’s almost done, but I’m just. so. tired...

10 years ago, I made an abomination of a "corset", more like a bodice with pretty trim. NOW, I've finally finished my first real corset with steel boning. Its crazy how comfortable tailored stuff can be when you've failed enough times to finally get it right! My biggest complaint to myself is that I didn't get the pattern matched up 100%. To quote @moiramaddogmccrae "corsets are an ever evolving process." . . . Pattern by @harlotsandangels Silk from @silkbaron Everything else from @corsetmaking . . . #tailoredtoebeans #handmade #handmadefashion #sewing #seamstress #seamstresslife #sewingprogress #sewingproblems (at Gonzales, Louisiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0myyq5n1Ce/?igshid=1nhjc4chzuxji

Trying to cover my sins. This is what happens when you’re impatient and you have problems finding matching sewing thread. You use something random and stitch over it with embroidery thread. #sewing #sewingproblems #embroidery #handstitching #janeaustenfestivalky https://www.instagram.com/p/BzJNobBJiZM/?igshid=16vtnmzvuiqzb

I really really want to start cutting out one of the new patterns I bought the other day but I’m going to restrain myself and finish this stack of WIPs first! #sewingroom #sewingroomorganization #sewingroominspiration #sewingroomideas #sewingproblems (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjqD3TQOaG1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Adventures in fabric dye part 2. While this isn't a perfect color match I think it is much closer than part 1. And I have decided that I am not going to stress about it too much because this is a learning experience. #sewingproblems #sewingprojects #ritdye #graphite #fabricdyeing #colorado #craft (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpHsF5MF9AB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pj0xpd2vbg6y

Trying to organize my craft supplies and got sick of having no table space so I just screwed my serger thread holder to the wall. Hopefully it holds and isn’t a pain TTwTT #sewingproblems #sewingroom #sewingthread https://www.instagram.com/p/CS4ruefLcWn/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sometimes it can be dangerous to sew, I can't tell you how my sewing machine needles brake but they do and pieces go flying around my craft space. #cosplay #cosplayer #canadiancosplayer #cosplayprogess #craft #sewing #sewingproblems #dangerous #staysafe #ontariocanada #mylife #mypassion https://www.instagram.com/p/B4qpoZRjjof/?igshid=e64hgtzxlyv6

Having carefully turned my skirt top and gathered my cartridge pleats, I find that I hate the way I did them and have to take them out. The linen is too thin to cover the distance around my waist with 1/2"pleats, so I'll line the top and make my pleats smaller. Sigh. #sewingproblems
