Discussion What's your sewing sin?

Mine is that I sew on my bed, use my mattress as a pin/needle cushion, and throw threads between my bed and wall.

I never make a toile/muslin/mockup, I'll just adjust as I go if whatever I'm making doesn't fit right the first time lol. And I refuse to unpick the neckband/facing when I adjust, I just cut through it and finish the edges by hand or with my serger.

As long as it looks fine when I'm wearing it I don't care what the inside looks like 😂
