This paper aims to show the transformation of a Spanish and literature teacher into a seamstress-teacher alongside her PhD advisor. After experiencing the relationship between writing and sewing as a means of research in order to think and perceive in a different way than what has been felt and sewn in the labyrinth-bodies of the two women and teachers, as a way to approach the underlying affections that are often suffocated behind the excess of productivity in their teaching environment. This article is founded upon the new forms of research circumscribed in teacher training, which question the method as an action in order to intertwine research and researchers and experience that which can be changed, by estranging that which one has experienced and felt, instead of limiting oneself to consolidating what one already knows. Throughout this research, the teacher who becomes a seamstress-teacher employs a disruptive form of writing from her sewing workshop to sew and unsew the affections within the same gesture, as an exercise in creating affectures, experiencing, along with teachers, another way of writing that allows sharing and transforming affectures into affictions in order to strengthen the power of interacting in educational encounters and, therefore, in the power of educating.
