Catherine Holbrook on Instagram: "The mental gymnastics I have to do to wrap my mind around how this works 🤯🤯 One of the coolest tricks I’ve learned recently! This makes installing elastic into a waistband super easy, because you don’t have to insert it after the waistband is attached. You insert it FIRST, and it’s sewn into the waistband. Then attached. It prevents the elastic from shifting around within the waistband! So flipping cool! . #sewing #sewingtricks #sewingtips #tipsandtricks #lifehack"
Tobias Konrath on Instagram: "Adding a slit to a french seam is much easier than it seems! #memademay2024 is the perfect opportunity to have an in depth look at my favorite kind of seam #frenchseams A split seam is particularly interesting for summery side seams and the best thing is that you don’t have to change the seam allowance! I know that there is probably a million different ways to sew things but I really enjoy trying new and figuring out stuff! If there is a particular sewing thing that you always wondered about let me know in the comments! #sewingtechnique #sewingtrick #sewingtips #sewing #indiesewing"
