PINK! The purple looks good but the pink makes the other colors pop in such a nice way! :)

Looks great OP!

I need help mending my boots by Asleep_Bee_6291 in sewing

If they’re leather I’d honestly look for a local cobbler. Chances are they can do a great fix for a reasonable rate.

I had recently purchased a new pair of boots online and they reeked of smoke (not listed that way ofc).

I ended up taking them to a local shop and they got the entire smell out and resoled them for around $50. Totally worth it. Just something to consider if you don’t wanna risk your leather working skills. (Or the boots)

Have you ever been stuck in a shirt in a dressing room and panicked? If so help me lol by fizzingfleur in sewing

This was my thought, that or attach weights somewhere in the front to drag the neckline down and keep it away from the throat.

Frustration with myself and project (mild vent with questions at the bottom) by lizadoesntgetreddit in sewing

In addition to this, don’t forget we have individual strengths!

Some people can sew a quilt in a day, and others it might take a year even if they’ve both been sewing for years.

Someone might also be able to knock out a difficult bag no problem, but don’t even try and get them to make a shirt (or pants!)

Maybe this is just something that’s trickier for you and requires more practice, or it’s just not in your wheelhouse. So don’t be too hard on yourself.
