      My Sewing Journey with my DAD💝

            👸Before you learn anything from me, you should know my Journey which will give you more motivation and confidence. For that, I have to get back at least 38 years. My sewing journey started before my birth without anybody's notice. Many people think that they know my story but truly said NO. They know very little of it. Today I may be the Founder of Online Sewing Academy which gives back the identity of many women, a well-settled Coach but everything started with my dad. I am very much happy to remember him here as a Daughter, a woman Entrepreneur, a Mentor, etc.

        👩 While he was in his school days he had an elder friend who had a tailoring shop in his native district of Kanyakumari. Though he is an extraordinary student in his studies, he developed a love for Sewing. On his weekly holidays, he used to spend time at his friend's tailoring shop. Whenever his friend leave the shop for lunch my dad use to remove the stitches in the newly made shirt to see how it had been stitched and before his friend returns he stitch the shirt as it was before. 
     
           👩 On seeing his interest in sewing his friend taught him to sew shirts so he can also save some wages. But he never taught him to cut dresses. He asked so many times, but his friend was not ready to teach since most of the world's skilled persons are not interested in passing the skill to anyone other than their family members. So that we lost an end number of treasures and medicines. 

           👩After completing his ITI Motor Mechanism in the distinction he migrated to Chennai with the help of his elder brother. His thriving towards sewing never stopped. When I was 18 months old he enrolled in a tailoring institute and finished his Tailoring Diploma which was his long-term dream.  Then a brand new Sewing Machine came into our home. Hope you know that Usha Brown table Pedal Machine. Later a Merritt Sewing machine joined. 

         👩 Whenever our father was not at home, I and my brother sit at the machines and pedaled as though we are riding the bikes. when he returns he would found out what happened before, by seeing the needles been broken. Then he taught us never to pedal the machine without fabric. If have to do so while oiling then he lifts the foot up and pedals. Every time when I give this instruction to my students I remember those days. It was a wonderful memory.

       👩  Still more to share. Let me stop here. Will continue on Thursday. Tomorrow we will see about a DON'T to learn Sewing Smarter.  So nobody knows where their roots have been tied up and when it emerges. I may be a graduate in Economics but in a very early stage, a seed has been sown for me to be a Sewer later it is been nourishing as a Trainer too... 

👩 Today's Lessons

 1.  Never run the machine without fabric or paper

 2. If so, lift up the foot and do. It will save needles from breaking and the foot from damage. If the needle breaks it may hurt you and even the eyes may be injured very badly.

 3. If you love something and try as much as you can one day you can master it. Never ever give up.

 4. If you love & master some skill, indirectly you pass that to your next generation. 

 5. If you have to teach any skill to anyone, teach fully. Never hide secrets. Who knows they may become the best in the field and remember you as their GURU and earn you a lot of blessings and pride. I will share an interesting fact on this in the upcoming days. You will love it.

            See you tomorrow with a DON'T to learn Sewing Smarter.
