Before that sewing project: I did something out of the ordinary.
I started with trying to make a springroll wrapper from scratch. However, I must say that creating such homemade lumpia wrapper is not my calling. You have to be an expert in such task. Only the experts can do it perfectly. It's just my first try and my husband tried the first waffer thin-like wrapper made from flour and water solution. Huh!? I couldn't believe that my husband ate that piece of lumpia wrapper like as if it's a holy waffer!!!!!!! I was surprised. Eh, parang " ostia" nga eh. Tamang-tama Sunday. Darn! I wont try that again. I would buy a lumpia or springroll and eggroll wrapper instead. Now you know why you have to think that some work are harder to do than the other work because sometimes to perfectly do something needs time after time, so many hours had been put to place, so many hours of practice doing the same kind of task before that somebody can perfectly become an expert. Husband said I need a machine to have perfect result for such task.
Olympian athletes do the same kind of thing. They have to practice so many times, training is a must to achieve perfection. Pilots, drivers, tailors, cook (watch Masterchef), snipers, fishermen, scientists, teachers (they trained themselves by studying again and again), lawyers, orators, so many of us have to practice again and again to keep busy and succeed with our tasks. Writers do the same kind of training by writing, being a soliloquy, talking to themselves while writing. Writing and thinking are interconnected to bring out results and stimulus.
It's the same thing with sewing. Before you can achieve perfection in sewing you must have a good sewing machine that is reliable and functional. You must know how to operate the machine properly, having the availability of sewing materials, right needles and right, correct proper thread and threading and correct proper fabric for thread and needles. Perhaps consider the correct bobbin too. It must align, connect and link to whatever your task is all about. Always been with the main purpose of doing it right.
