I choose this image as the viewer can use it as a window while seeing the fragility and brokenness of the wing structure maintained by threads as I imagine how the Mayfly's wing may look after it has descended into the water at the end of its own lifecycle.

I continued to experiment and play with my fragile wing after it dissolved in the river.

As the weather here is at -3 it was a perfect opportunity to get an array of images as it froze in the cold misty air.

A little gif while it is caught in the movement of a frozen plant.

Let’s SEW in!

Sewing, as we all know, is the most basic yet essential thing to do, especially if we are trying to be independent. Well, in my life, I thought that I was definitely, officially, an independent woman. But the problem is...I don't know how to sew! I'm having a hard time doing basic stitches, even if it's just buttons that I need to put on my uniform blouses. But despite that, I'm here to learn! And I am assuming that you are also interested in learning this too; that's why you're reading this, right? Well, if that's the case, let's sew!

WHAT is sewing?

Sewing, according to the Collins Dictionary, is the activity of making or mending clothes or other things using a needle and thread. Basically, we do this when we have something to repair clothes with or even create a new one. Did you know that you can do this with bare hands or a machine? It is very interesting, isn't it?

Types of sewing stitches

Running Stitch

This is the most basic of all sewing stitches. It works by passing the sewing needle in and out of the fabric. Depending on the project, the running stitch can vary in length, but this type of stitch is mainly used to sew basic seams and in quilting to hold the fabric layers and wadding in place. This stitch is good if you are practicing! It’ll help you learn control and, of course, patience.

Lockstitch

This stitch is done by most common single-needle sewing machines. This stitch involves the needle passing through the fabric and interacting with a bobbin or boat shuttle beneath the fabric platform. Because of this, the end result is a strong stitch that can be used on any piece of clothing where there is a seam, such as shirts and blankets. Though, this can also be done using our bare hands. This is one of the stitches that is fun to do! You can even create shirts or blankets by using this stitch.

Coverstitch

The coverstitch is a very popular type of stitch for multiple-needle sewing machines. This involves two or more needles and one or two loopers. One looper manipulates the thread underneath the fabric being sewn, forming a bottom coverstitch against the needle thread. Another looper above the fabric can form a top coverstitch at the same time. This leads to a firm stitch that is used in garment construction, particularly in attaching trims and sewing flat seams. If you want clean and strong stitches, this is the right one for you! If you want to start a clothing or garment business, knowing how to sew this type of stitch will greatly help you succeed!

Overlock

also known as a serger stitch, is used in multiple-needle sewing machines. It involves between one and four threads, one or two needles, and one or two loopers. The most common uses for the overlock stitch are on seams in stretchy fabrics and for protecting edges from unravelling. A common example of this is in the belt loops on a pair of jeans. If you are also planning to sell clothes, this form of stitch can also be a great help because it is good for stretchy fabrics. We all know that our customers want strong and stretchable clothes, right?

Benefits

Knowing how to sew has several advantages, ranging from the ability to repair personal clothing and other fabrics to the ability to make a blanket if the world goes bad. Other benefits include better eye coordination, the development of a creative mind, and even dementia prevention. "Making things on today's modern sewing machines incorporates all the elements of STEM education in an artful way that builds self-esteem and perseverance," the authors add (Charnley). STEM is an important part of society because we all live in a technologically advanced world.

Importance

Sewing is an important life skill and is the vehicle to teach self-confidence through skill-building. Sewing helps you develop fine motor skills, improves your focus and concentration, and teaches the importance of patience and self-control.

Indeed, sewing is great fun and very important! Especially if you are trying to become an entrepreneur in the future. Having sewing skills can save us a lot in our lives. From mending to creating to designing! For sure, you’ll be a great entrepreneur just by having this basic life skill.

Artist Research | Fashion Elective

In TUS we have an extensive library resource where I like to spend some of my time researching the many books and fashion editorials.

I'm particularly interested in hand weaving skills and textiles.

I attempted to work on a piece by using a technique Called 'smocking' which I thought only applied to my mothers curtains back in the 80's.

Through Colette Wolff's book, The Art of Manipulating Fabric, I have been introduced to a more fulfilling creative adventure to learn new techniques to apply to my final design.

These are some of my final test piece results..

Exploring ways to create ruffles, frills and shapes using smocking.
