Belt Patterns
If a project includes a printable pattern, you’ll see a “p” next to its title. If a project doesn’t include a
pattern template, don’t despair! It likely consists of simple fabric shapes (like squares and rectangles)
that you can easily measure and cut yourself.

Note that some projects may be designed for a specific type of sewing machine. But don’t let that
discourage you! If a project you like calls for, say, complex embroidery stitches and you have just a
simple zigzag machine, you can try experimenting with a satin stitch, hand-embroidering a design, or
adding purchased embellishments instead.

Sewing Quick Tip:

Interfacing tip:

If you find yourself without enough interfacing for your project, you can join smaller pieces of
fusible interfacing to make one larger piece.

For light to medium weight interfacing, you can slightly overlap the edges of the pieces when
fusing them to your fabric, but with heavier interfacing, butt the edges of the pieces
together to avoid bulk that can show through to the outside of your fabric.

Sewing Quick Tip:

When measuring
and pressing a
hem, use a hem
gauge to keep the
top edge of the
hem from pressing
a ridge into the
right side of your
fabric. To use the
hem gauge, fold
the hem of your
garment over its
edge and press.
Sewing Quick Tip:

If you don't have
quite enough fabric
for your layout, try
spreading your
fabric out in a
single layer instead
of doubling it. This
will give you more
flexibility in
arranging your
pattern pieces and
you may be able to
squeeze them all
in.
