    I relate to this "not knowing some words in your native language" part way to much. At this point my personal notes are often a mess of German and English and for certain topics I even throw in some more different languages.
    In the end, I just gave up caring because I'm the only one who has to read this stuff and as long as it makes sense to my weird brain I'm fine.

    You say your videos aren't very interesting but in my opinion, you couldn't be more wrong. Just because they're not exciting, doesn't mean they're not interesting. I love watching your videos because they're relaxing yet at the same time inspiring. Seeing you chase your dreams, even if it's mundane, tedious sewing projects encourages me to keep going on my own tedious activities. I turn on your channel and watch while I cook and sew.
    Currently making a quilted tapestry for my dad for Christmas and I have no idea what I'm doing. You've helped me through the rough patches on that endeavor. And I'm now mentally invested in your jacket project, so I can't wait to see how it turns out!

    Omg 😂 this was brilliant! You're doing great with the sewing (I also swear when it says I'm supposed to use the sewing machine and I'm nowhere near it 😩). I'm almost entirely self-taught and trying to puzzle through Japanese sewing manuals has been an experience! I'll bring the English words, you bring the Japanese ones?
    While I'm watching, I am embroidering a bulbasaur to use as a patch on a dress, or something, haven't really decided yet. I've got a notepad on my lap with all the sewing terms because I have no chill - I must have rewound like 20 times to catch all of it. 縫い代 is seam allowance, 接着芯 is "adhesive core" aka interfacing/interlining, and 外袖 is outer sleeve.
    It's looking awesome, can't wait to see it done! 😘❤

    I know it's kinda late but there are iron boards that are tiny and with short legs made for putting on top of tables, beds, or ironing while sitting on the floor.
    You should be able to find one, specially in Japan since that's what older people use. They are so small you can put them inside a cupboard or under furniture / between furniture and the wall.

  • @hannayoung9657
    @hannayoung9657 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The difference between design school and seamstress school was, seamstress had a test on iron clothes, we had to iron the design students works. Sömsmån = Sewing allowance = is the spare fabric by the seam when you sew, Mellanlägg = facing is the stuff you make stuff more sturdier.
