I have been sewing since I was 9 , and feel it is essential for everyone to learn basic hand sewing - sewing on a button , repairing a hem , etc. Tailors charge a lot to do basic repairs ! My 3 sons all learned basic sewing and are glad they learned . Embroidery , smocking and other fancy things can come later . It’s fun to make adjustments yourself to make an item fit better !
