🧵 Tip Tuesday Your iron is just as important as your sewing machine. If your seams look lumpy, wavy, or homemade… don’t sew faster. Press after every seam. Pressing (not ironing back and forth) helps: ✨ Make your projects look more professional. ✨ Keep fabric laying flat. ✨ Help pattern pieces line up better. ✨ Save you from ripping out stitches later. Think of it this way… You don’t wait until you’re finished cooking to season your food. You don’t wait until your project is finished to press your seams. 😉 💕 Small habits create beautiful garments.

It’ll wait.The laundry… well… it’ll definitely wait. 😂 Today, pour yourself something you enjoy, put your feet up, watch a sewing video if you want—or don’t. Take a walk Read a book Call a friend Pet the dog Take a nap. Whatever fills your cup. Remember… ✨ Progress doesn’t only happen while you’re sewing.

Let’s have a little coffee chat… What’s ONE sewing project you’ve been meaning to finish? We all have one… 🧵 The project in the tote bag. ✂️ The pattern that’s been cut but never sewn. 🪡 The garment waiting on “just one more step.” No judgment here, suga. 😆 Drop it in the comments and let’s cheer each other on! 🎉 Sometimes we blame our bodies when the real problem is perfection. We tell ourselves we’ll finish after we lose weight, after we get better, after we have more time… But progress beats perfection every single time. One seam, One pattern piece. It all counts. This is your reminder to STOP BLAMING YOUR BODY and keep creating for the beautiful one you have today❣️ Wishing a life filled with hearts 💕 butterflies 🦋 and the joy of creating your own kind of wonderful 🪡🧵 Because sewing is cheaper than therapy. 🪡🧵 —B.

On June 19, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed, enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free. Think about that. They had to wait for someone to tell them they were free, enslaved for two extra years. You don’t❣️ Don’t wait for permission. Don’t wait for validation. Don’t wait for someone else to tell you you’re good enough, talented enough, worthy enough, or ready enough. Walk in your freedom❣️ At Sewing Thru It, that freedom looks like refusing to blame your body for clothes that were never made with your curves in mind. It looks like learning a skill that lets you create what fits your life—not someone else’s standard❣️ Today, we honor the strength, resilience, and sacrifice of those who came before us. And we remember this: They waited two years free as $&@; and didn’t know it❣️because they had to. You don’t❣️ So create. Dream. Start the business. Learn the skill. Wear the clothes. Take up the space. Freedom isn’t just something we celebrate. It’s something we get to walk in every single day, that our ancestors didn’t get to do even when it was legal for them to. ❤️ Happy Juneteenth🦋 Smooches 😘 —B. Michele
