6. Sewing Intimidation
No student is penalized for not having fantastic sewing ability.
It’s my experience that students who get bad grades didn’t really want to take the class in the first place. So, if you’re not afraid to sew, don’t be afraid you’ll get a bad grade.
Grade comes from trying new techniques.
