I'm new and not very good a sewing and have found many tips already! There is so much to do! Lol once I was rushing to sew this purse up and made many mistakes! First of all I had a fabric that was way to easy to tear and wrong for that the kind of purse that I was trying to make.
Second it was fraying really bad, but I choose to ignore it and cut it off later.
Third the edges were uneven.
Fourth, but most import I some how managed to sew one of the four sides inside out!
Just to show, if ya want something to turn out well you gotta take your time!
Frankly I didn't know that I was doing and was to stubborn to ask for help. Oh well if guess i learn the hard way!
Aways love to be here!
Oh and sorry if I posted this in the wrong board I just didn't know where it goes, if I did plz tell me.

Worst Sewing Mistakes thread
This thread has a lot of equally entertaining examples of the stupid mistakes we've done. Yours would fit in perfectly. Somehow we get the courage to keep trying, learning and doing a better job next time.
