    Seamstresses never get recognized for the stress they go through.. I am a seamstress, I live this on a daily! Some customers do recognize the hard work and stress I put into their garments, others act like what I do is child's work. I feel your stress through the screen girl, but you did a great job for your first try on a very detailed shirt!

      And you gotta love the people who DON’T sew but they lowball your work and say “it can’t be THAT hard”. Or when people find out you sew and they want you to hem their clothes for free “because we’re friends!”. Okay FRIEND...go wash my dishes, feed my kids, and walk my dogs while I use my time, supplies, and skills to hem your clothes.

      An alternate origin theory for the guayabera is that it was introduced to Mexico during the Manila-Acapulco transpacific trade during colonial times, and as such is a direct descendant of a Barong Tagalog
