LEARN HOW TO SKETCH. Note by Evelyn Umeh. Introduction To start sketching, you would need a pencil (H hard lead pencils preferably), sketch book and quality eraser.  In sketching, note that you should make light marks on your sketching paper instead of pressing too hard on the paper so that you would find it easy to clean once there’s a mistake.  Do not use pen. It is highly unacceptable and as such, not advisable because you won’t be able to erase where there’s alteration. You would need colored markers, ink or paint to color your sketch in order to give your illustration a good finishing by the use of well details, trimmings, buttons, etc. I have also come across sketches and illustrations that are colored with the use of makeup kits; it is all about your creativity.  First Stage to Sketching Your Croquis.

If you are a very passionate seamstress and tailor, whether professional or self/home tailor, making your sewing room look as neat as these wouldn't be a bad idea. It is achievable. Usually, most tailors are known to have clothes scattered all over the sewing room or shop while it isn't the case for some. I've had the experience several times of clients walking into my store, only to find it extremely neat like there's no work going on there. They'd ask, "do you make clothes here at all? Do you make clothes for clients"? I'm like in my mind, kidding me? Am I in store to play? Lol. Of course, I make clothes for clients but I'm just too meticulous and neat at everything which influences my sewing too.  Now, check out these sewing rooms. Aren't they waoh!?
