In this lesson, I’ll show you how to approach undoing stitches - unpicking - as a normal, useful part of sewing, not a setback.
We’ll talk about why every sewist will unpick seams, how different unpicking methods work, and why choosing a calm, controlled approach can make a big difference to both your fabric and your mindset. I’ll guide you through my preferred method step by step, so you can undo stitches efficiently without damaging your work or creating unnecessary mess.
As you practise this technique, you’ll begin to let go of the fear that mistakes stop your progress. Instead of feeling stuck or frustrated when something goes wrong, you’ll know exactly how to remove a seam cleanly and keep moving forward.
By the end of this lesson, unpicking will feel like a practical skill you can rely on — one that protects your fabric, preserves your confidence, and helps your sewing flow more smoothly from one step to the next.
