No nuance poll:
Can you sew?
Yes
No
Any kind of sewing counts - mending, dressmaking, hand sewing, machine sewing, embroidery, replacing buttons. Any amount of sewing, any kind of sewing, the question is not if you're good at sewing, it is "are you able to use a needle to pass thread through fabric to join things together/have you done so at least once in your life?"
Second no-nuance question:
Do you currently own the supplies to do any amount of sewing?
Yes
No
A hotel sewing kit counts. Yarn needles and yarn count. The question is just "if you needed to sew a single stitch of any variety, do you own the materials to do so or would you need to get them from someone else (a store, a friend, a parent, etc)?" The materials don't even have to be in your possession, the question is just if you personally own some sewing supplies.
A few years ago I made a super basic tutorial for how to thread a needle, knot the thread, make a straight stitch, and tie off the thread so if you don't know how to do literally any sewing and want a basic how-to with photos and instructions, that exists here.
