Observations & Interviews
Person A:
Wanted to make cosplay outfit.
...
She had difficulty doing the sewing, since she needed to realign the fabric and ended up twisting it a lot. She wishes the kit came with more pictures, and "more specific instructions" such as the flipping inside out and how to sew the head on.
Person C:
C is a young college male who participated in a sewing workshop for his first sewing experience. The workshop taught the basics of using a sewing machine.
Despite having a face-to-face instructor helping him, C still had difficulties with "threading the machine so the thread wouldn't fall off" and "making sure the fabric was moving at the right speed." He wishes that he had better instructions on how to set the sewing machine settings and access to fabric that was neither too thick nor too thin.
