Sewing #2

I think I found a way to learn about how to control the manic sewing machines.
I related back to my childhood, where a young version of myself would come home from primary school everyday to watch, The Crocodile hunter, with Steve Irwin. 
I remember that he always had this philosophy of never treating the "crocs" as incredibly dangerous senseless prehistoric beasts but rather treating them like people. He understood the predator nature of the Crocodiles and because of this he was able to "Co-operate" with them very well.

Okay I know its a little extreme but that's probably why it worked so well.

Yup this actually worked. 

From that point on I was able to work with the sewing machine with a lot more accuracy and control. 

AND ITS ALL THANKS TO STEVE!!! 

So what did we focus on today? 

We looked at some other machines called Over lockers, which enabled the user to apply a neat zigzag stitch to the edge of a piece of fabric this in theory will stop the fabric from fraying or stops it from flexing quite as much. 

We also began to work on a basic shirt which we can refer back to in the future to see just to see how shit we were back in 2017... 

I mean so we get the idea of how different stitches and seams work on a shirt.
