If home economics classes in school hadn't been gutted a generation ago, this could be much more viable. It's becoming hard to find anybody that can so much as sew on a button. Much less operate an electric sewing machine.
It's one of those things that is really not hard, you just have to have some exposure to it.
- oftenwrong 7y agoI learned sewing in school, but I never developed the skill for anything more than the most basic alterations. Most of the tailors in my area are older people, and they seem to be from the "Eastern Bloc" or China. I would imagine they grew up using sewing as a practical, day-to-day skill, or profession, and not merely as a hobby or odd-skill-I-learned-in-school.
