Chose cotton fabric you love, a simple pattern, follow the direction. The result will make you proud of how much you learned and your final project.
My advice to a beginner in sewing is just take your time..start w/
plain square items..a straight skirt..or just small..also
learn to cut your patterns-as they are the most
important 1st step and just let the years
give your the experience…
My advice for abeginning sewing is buy a sewing book, for beginners and take a class at your local sewing store.
i would buy a beginning sewing book and read all the lessons there.
I would say don’t worry if your project doesn’t turn out perfect. Usually you are the only one who notices & it will be a lot more fun & not as frustrating. I have personally struggled with this.
