    Safety Precautions in Sewing

    • Always keep sewing needles pointed down and away from your body to prevent accidental punctures or cuts.
    • Never point the tips of scissors or needles towards yourself or others to avoid injuries.
    • Secure your work firmly, either by clamping it to a table or using a hoop or frame, to prevent slipping and potential injuries.
    • Take regular stretch breaks to avoid eye strain and hand fatigue from prolonged sewing.
    • Properly clean and store all sewing tools when not in use to maintain their condition and prevent accidents.

    Importance of Safe Practices

    • Pointing sewing tools downward and away from your body ensures that if the tool slips or you make an unexpected movement, it will not cause harm.
    • Securing your work prevents the fabric from slipping and reduces the risk of injuries from sudden movements.
    • Regular breaks during a sewing project allow your muscles to rest and help you maintain focus and dexterity throughout the activity.
