Today I'm going to share a few of my super easy tricks for cutting and taping pdf sewing patterns. I know some people can't stand putting together pdf patterns but I find it to be pretty quick and easy. I hope that if you're pdf pattern averse, this will help give you a jump start. I love pdf patterns because they are so easy to download (hello, instant gratification!) and if I mess up I can always reprint. Let's get started!
The first step of any sewing project is to gather your fabric and supplies. Your project will go much more smoothly if you have everything you need right from the beginning. There's no bigger buzz kill than having to run out to the fabric store in the middle of stitching to pick up supplies. (Trust me! I've done it more times than I can count!) So, today I'm going to give you some tips on choosing fabric for the woven version of the Lou Box Top pattern and a list of essential supplies. Let's get started!
Hello happy sewists! I hope that you are having lovely weekends. The kind of weekends I love most are perfectly balanced between making things, drinking lots of coffee (who am I kidding, I do that every day!) and relaxing with friends and family. When I'm lounging around sewing, listening to the radio, topping off the water in the iron and the coffee in my cup, I wear my comfiest, stretchiest clothes. When sewing, I move around the house, from cutting on the floor, to the ironing board to the sewing machine, to a chair for pinning or unpicking, so comfort is a must.
