Especially cutting linings. The other thing I don't like is altering patterns, although I must do it. I think the reason I do not like these two things is because they take so long.Nancy Winninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291320098379550586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704085174347222254.post-41762735946115983002008-12-21T16:42:00.000-05:002008-12-21T16:42:00.000-05:00LOL I like thinking about it and planning it with ...LOL I like thinking about it and planning it with fabric, but I don't actually like any part of sewing, I just like the intellectual challenge of it.<BR/><BR/>Sad, isn't it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704085174347222254.post-28617075183394506862008-12-19T18:35:00.000-05:002008-12-19T18:35:00.000-05:00Setting in sleeves!

I'd rather just get to the machine. Although I don't mind cutting as much when I'm reconstructing clothes-- usually I'm sticking things on the dummy and chopping them up, so I guess it's kind of the dual fun of playing fashion designer draper and getting to destroy things. :DBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09913795373618902575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704085174347222254.post-36354268854504192052008-12-19T16:32:00.000-05:002008-12-19T16:32:00.000-05:00Okay, I had to think about this one.

As a writer, in a parallel to sewing, editing (cutting) parts of a story can be difficult, knowing which lines (storyline) to follow, which pattern of characterization to fine tune. But the final product always comes out sharper afterwards.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972054718663959694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704085174347222254.post-3594498588516453652008-12-19T13:34:00.000-05:002008-12-19T13:34:00.000-05:00i wouldn't say i hate cutting, but i think the rea...i wouldn't say i <B>hate</B> cutting, but i think the reason i don't like it much is that i have to do it on the dining room table. i like the actual cutting out part, it's having to set it up, cut, and put away all in one shot that i don't like.<BR/><BR/>i think my favorite part is pressing. i love to iron.mamafitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00532203067920083845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704085174347222254.post-85614344077563650542008-12-19T12:29:00.000-05:002008-12-19T12:29:00.000-05:00I don't mind the cutting out, I actually like that...I don't mind the cutting out, I actually like that part. What I don't like it marking the fabric with all the little dots, circles, notches, etc. You'd think I like this part, since I do a lot of detail work and like things to match up and be exact, but no. I find it rather boring and would rather get on with the sewing, but I do it anyway because I know it will make for a final product that looks like it is supposed to.Summersethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00364235843222794829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704085174347222254.post-61518949692311817682008-12-19T11:23:00.000-05:002008-12-19T11:23:00.000-05:00I hate cutting too, though it's much better when I...I hate cutting too, though it's much better when I don't have two kittens "helping" me cut. I also don't like pinning because I almost always prick myself at least once.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09914661288435609788noreply@blogger.com
