Sewing Quick Tips:
Tip #1: Lint can accumulate on your scissor blades, which can make cutting more difficult and strenuous.
Therefore, make scissor cutting easier by wiping the lint build-up from your scissor blades with a clean, soft cloth
after every few cuts. Your scissors will cut more smoothly and you’ll experience less hand fatigue.
Tip #2: Some fabrics, particularly natural fibers, can shrink just from the heat and moisture of an iron. Therefore,
it’s important to preshrink some dry-clean only fabrics (by pressing them, not by washing them, of course), even
though you won’t be laundering them.
Note: If a project below includes a printable pattern, you’ll see a “p” next to its title. If a project doesn’t include
a pattern template, it likely consists of simple fabric shapes (like squares and rectangles) that you can easily
measure and cut yourself. And note that some projects may be designed for a specific type of sewing machine.
However, 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.
