🧵✂️ This or That | Sewing Edition ✂️🧵 

Me: Stash, pdf(w/copyshop), trace, just go for it. Fabric: in store, wovens all day, tumble dry (no heat), rotary cutter for life. Clothing construction: instructions, bias tape, serged seams or zigzag stitch, neither fly for me, buttons by hand, fusible interfacing, snip as I go, press as I go. Habits: daytime since I sew on the weekends, slow and steady, one big clean up! This is fun!

I’m with you facings 90 percent of the time. The only time I use them is if I’m doing a v neck. I cannot seam to get a handle on bias tape and the turn!

I’m still new to sewing so to hear for the first time tht I have the option to SKIP FACING and do bias tape instead is 🤯

I’m with you on the facings. I don’t like they way they bulk up a garment. I live in central CA where it gets hot, hot and it’s just too much fabric. I’ll spend two hour on a RU-vid tutorial to get a perfect v bias binding before I sew a facing at this point. Square neck lines are the only exception. As for the elastic pants, wear what’s comfortable; I love them as well. I never thought I would!

You know I'll have my video up this week. I saw this and was like yes, I'll be doing this. Thank you for the tag!

I hang everything. My only fabric store near me is an hour away and is a JoAnn's. I love facings! It's great to learn about our differences and why we like what they like. I also love finding how we are alike.

I agree, I despise facings. Love this video, the comparisons were fun. French seams have taught me so much patience. We all have our little preferences 😀

This was a fun video! I learned so much about you! ❤

Yes #2 i agree!!👍🏽

This was such a fun tag - thanks for starting it!

This was a great video. Reminded me to get caught up on the Love To Sew podcast. :) Thank you so very much for tagging me. Looking forward to watching more tags now.

Cool video thanks for tagging me I'll definitely do this one soon.

What a fun video. I answered all of these out loud and learned about me as well as you! Thank you!

This was super interesting! I really identified with wanting to finish a project quickly. Its like you gotta exorcise the demon! Thanks for this peek into your personality too - you seem so relateable and kind.

What a great tag

Such a fun video idea!! I listened to and loved that episode of Love to Sew. I will be getting on this idea, for sure. I'm with you on some but definitely feel strongly the other way with some categories. That's the fun, right?

Great video! We're basically This or That twins minus following directions!!

Oh, this is so cool! I wish I was tagged!

Lovely! I had only seen the "this or that" format on instagram. 🥰 I will surely tag you if I have some time to join this game ❤

Love this tag!

We have so many similarities on this list for sure. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Julie, what is the exact hashtag so I can put it on my video?

I too hate, hate 8:42 facings. You and I agree on most of this. I do follow directions. Don’t have enough skills to not follow directions.

The Flys are so dumb, I'd rather do the 17th c fall front placket, or a regular zip sewn in like an invisible zip
