The Last Stitch | Can I Sew Full-Time? Taking a Break From My Day-Job @Thelaststitch | Uploaded September 2019 | Updated October 2024, 18 hours ago.
I’m taking a break from my day-job so that I can focus fully on my sewing projects for a while. But will it work out financially? And will I get bored with sewing?
I’ve been maintaining a full-time job while also writing two sewing books, doing weekly YouTube videos, launching a small accessory sewing pattern line, blogging every week and doing lots of other things that goes into having what has essentially become a sewing business. But as you might have already guessed, a sewing business is not necessarily a great way to make money. So I had to make a tough decision.
Now, this is not a sustainable way to live, at least not long term. To be honest, it’s like asking for an eventual burnout and after I published my second book Master the Coverstitch Machine this spring, I began feeling the first signs of a burnout approaching, such as forgetfulness, lack of motivation, tiredness and having a harder time to decompress.
