My biggest sewing challenge is finding the time to sew all the projects that I would like to do. I sew personal hygiene kits for girls in under-developed countries, pillowcase dresses for girls in need, teddy bears for charity and a number of other projects for less fortunate children. I also love sewing doll clothes from the patterns I have from Pixie Faire for my grandchildren as well as many other sewing projects.

My biggest sewing challenge always comes from my granddaughters. I have made their Halloween costume for the last couple of years, and they always choose something that involves a tailored coat. So much work! (But, like I keep telling them, I would do anything for them.?)

(It tends to go something like that, and only gifts for people not living at home or items I donate tend to get finished)
… getting started! I often over think projects instead of just diving in.

The hard part for me is doing the finishing touches on the outfits such as the buttons and hand sewing. I procrastinate really bad and then i have a pile to finish
My biggest sewing challenge was making my daughter’s Frozen costume to look identical to the one in the movie.
My biggest sewing challenge was making my daughter’s Frozen costume to look identical to the one in the movie.
My biggest sewing challenge is time and staying focused to see the project completed before I tackle another project. Another challenge to locate the materials and supplies needed to sew the pattern. I don’t have many fabric stores in my region, therefore, I buy materials and supplies when I go on trips stopping at stores along the way to my destination. It sure makes trip planning fun!
My biggest sewing, knitting, or crochet challenge is finishing projects!
My biggest challenge is deciding what I want to make. There are so many sewing, embroidery and crocheting projects that I want to do. I just don’t have time to do them all.
My biggest challenge is I wish I knew how to crochet more than a square. My biggest sewing challenge is that I dont have an outlet for my creations and my granddaughters done need 200 outfits for their dolls. That makes it difficult to get started on a new one. But I love sewing for the dolls, so I have been finding dolls at the thrift store, reloving them, and giving them away with clothes to the girls in my life.
My biggest challenge is finding small print fabrics that I like.

Finding time to do it all! After that comes finding some lace yardage with a pattern scaled small enough for an 18 inch doll.
My biggest sewing challenge is space. I feel like spend more time packing everything up than it’s worth what I get done. Next, would be finding the right materials. Crochet and knitting my biggest challenges have to do with finishing. I’m usually working while watching tv, so I have to take the time to go to where there is better lighting for the final steps, which usually take more concentration. Also, honestly weaving in all those ends . . . well I just put it off until I can’t stand the pressure!
Getting started!!!! Sometimes I need motivation.

Finally a wonderful boy doll with outfits to match any child’s imagination.
My biggest sewing challenge is having way more ideas and projects than I have time to make! It’s so easy to buy fabric for all those ideas, then never get around to making them. So this year, I’m going to keep my fabric shopping to a minimum and try to use just stash fabrics for new projects; I have enough projects in my stash to keep me busy for a while! :)
Also, I have to say, I LOVE this outfit! I’ve been wanting a boy doll to sew for, so it would be incredible if I won this giveaway!
My biggest sewing, knitting, or crochet challenge is making decisions! First there is deciding what to do next. So many fun options…. then once decided…. colors, textures, finishing touches – decisions, decisions!
My biggest sewing challenge is always time. But thinking specifically of skills, I would say trying new technics. I want to, but I always feel time challenged so I don’t often take the leap and jump into learning new skills. I have to say, video tutorials help that. Gonna work more on learning new skill sets in 2018.
My biggest sewing challenge is sewing on sleeves. I always struggle no matter how well it’s pinned, there is always a hole somewhere in the seam!
My biggest sewing challenge is finding time to make the things that I dream up.
My biggest sewing challenge is staying organized when I move about every two years. I tend to combine all my fabric to condense for moving and then have to uncondense it while unpacking. Often I move again before finding all my stuff. Wish I could just be permanent somewhere……
Liike everyone else time in a challenge but also I can’t knit and would like the time to learn.
My biggest sewing and other crafts is my own “perfectionistic” / OCD personality. It makes everything I start take longer to finish than it should.
My biggest challenge? Well I read other posts first and again found other people have the same problems I do. Organization, time, and focus. They all work against me. And my imagination is always miles a head of where I can actually, physically, be in the creative process. I knit, crochet and sew, and have so many unfinished projects…. Good intentions do not always get a job done! :O(

My biggest sewing, knitting or crochet challenge is finishing my projects.

My biggest sewing, knitting or crocheting challenge is getting the time to do them except crocheting since I do not do that well at all. Time is the biggest challenge for me.
crocheting—I’ve never been able to master the technique.
My biggest sewing challenge is time management! Setting aside even 20 minutes a day is as important to me as exercising! But between work and family and other to do lists, sewing sometimes takes a back seat.
My biggest challenge is getting the time to work and the organization.
My biggest challenge is staying focused and finishing a project, I tend to get distracted and start something else that catches my imagination before I’m done the first thing.
