I enjoy your videos and most of your advice is spot on. And even the advice you give that might not be technically 100% accurate, is probably the best advice to give a novice swimwear maker. For example, I am a self-taught swimwear designer and have been making swimwear for over 25 years. I've never owned a serger, never used a lightning bolt stitch, and rarely use a zigzag stitch (except to sew in the elastic). I do use a straight stitch from time to time with NO STITCH POPPING, but concede a new swimwear maker will likely have a lot of stitch-popping problems (lol). So I guess the moral of my story is, there is likely as many ways to make swimwear as there are creative cool people to make them. Keep doing what you're doing. Good luck! 🧵🪡
