Can I learn Sewing from Youtubers?

   👉 Yes of course you can. Because tons of designs can be found on YouTube which you can find nowhere. But definitely not at the initial stage, at the beginner level, or even if you want to be a professional. Youtubers put a lot of effort to entertain people and educate them. But unfortunately, the system adopted to educate the viewers on Sewing is almost incomplete. If I can explain a little bit more about this then you can understand better.

       👉  Learning a garment includes 5 steps which I am going to reveal on Friday on Do's Category. Anyone who follows those 5 steps can develop her/himself as a professional in a very short period. Before that, we should understand a few limitations that YouTube learning has. Let us see some challenges in learning through Social media. 

Challenge No. 1

  

        👉  To learn a garment completely we need at least 1 to 3 hours of teaching on a video basis what we follow in our Academy. Does anyone have the habit of watching that kind of lengthy video on YouTube? Have you ever watched it? So mostly very short videos are been made by Youtubers to attract more views and Subscribers which will not work anyway.

Challenge No. 2

      👉 Dresses on YouTube are mostly made for the person who creates the video, not for your size. It is not possible to make it for all the sizes of viewers. Nobody can have any idea about who watches. Since women's size is complicated, the experienced tailors are struggling to satisfy their customers even though they are doing customized sewing. Then how it is possible to learn from assumptions.

Challenge No. 3

      👉  Even though experts are there and produce excellent results on YouTube, they also won't reveal the secret of a perfect outfit for free. From my observation, many of the other video makers are not professionals. They just copy from top channels and reproduce it in their channels. That's why if a trend gets started in one channel you can see that particular garment in every channel. You can observe by the date of the garment being posted on different Channels.

 

Challenge No. 4

       👉  Nowadays people are addicted to reels and short videos, and video makers find it very difficult in producing quality videos. They are forced to cut their efforts into small videos to sustain subscribers which in turn produce very lower results. In the future, it may turn into slide shows, which may end in zero results but still, we will be spending hours & hours but not learning anything.

Challenge No. 5

       👉 If you want to excel in particular art you should follow only one Guru or Coach in the budding stage who is an expert and can fulfill all your knowledge demands. But in Social media videos, there are a lot of people who teach you various methods, and finally, you get confused about which method you should follow. After scrolling for hours you drop the idea of making anything and leave the platform without learning. In the Sewing field, every person has their own formulas and methods.

Challenge No. 6

      👉 Even if you manage to learn something and make a garment definitely you need some fine-tuning on your work or to get clarity on your doubts and to clear fitting issues. But nobody is there to answer your queries. You would be posting your doubt in the comments box and waiting for the answer. But mostly there won't be any reply. Please understand you are not paying them anyway directly so they are not responsible to answer any of your queries and problems you face in learning the garment. A Coach will answer all your queries because she/he is been paid by you so that is answerable & 100 percent responsible for your better output. 

Challenge No. 7

      👉 As  I said most of them are not professionals, if you happen to follow that kind and make a garment, and fail to produce the desired result, automatically you stop doing more. The purpose you spend your valuable time on that glorious platform will not be achieved. Even if they do also, I have seen many who introduced them as good sewers by following sewing channels for years are not able to fulfill the expectation that a normal sewer should have.

Solutions & Today's Lessons:

     💖     1. Refer to Quality YouTube channels at an advanced level to know, more and more patterns, not at the stage of learning Fundamentals. Because in the initial stage you need more guidance and step-by-step handholding support. More to that, learning sewing requires more tips & techniques.

     💖     2. Never waste your precious time by scrolling up & down. In my opinion, if anyone values their time will choose an expert, start learning and produce wonderful results. If clever enough will start monetizing as soon as possible and earn back their investment. To me learning from the right people is not an expense, it's an investment. This applies to any Skill you wish to learn for yourself or to teach your kids.

     💖    3. Never be alone while learning an art. Be in a community where you will gain more knowledge through others' experiences, and mistakes. Particularly if you wish to do business learn this skill from a professional not from the teacher or the one who copies.

    💖 4. Also, remember free stuff never works. Always there is a price for everything. If it has the effect of working, there would be lakhs of quality tailors and designers around us. If we are not ready to value others' knowledge they gained for years then our output would also not be at the level for recognition. 

        💖  Whatever I share with my students and my kids to excel in their life I share with you people. It's all my personal opinion based on all these years of experience. Whatever I learned for free didn't work. More than 10 Skills I learned. Whichever I put my time and money into is paying me back in many folds. So I am happily sharing that my students never go behind freebies and in turn, they are also well paid.
