Life skills


Futile attempt at the sewing machine. I learnt that you have to double stitch some ends, and hem to ends of the cloth to get a more finished look. Also, the type of cloth used is quite important. I used an old tshirt to sew, so you can still see the prints even from the outside.
If I'm buying cloth, the material will be slightly off white and softer than t-shirt material. Handles have to be longer too.
Dimensions of entire cloth needed: 41.5cm x 15.5cm 


I quote my dad, "Your life skills suck". No qualms about that. Spent some time figuring out how to you the sewing machine. Had to figure out how to sew a tote bag for the textbook I'm designing with the cloth I'm about to get from Spotlight.
