learn how to sew

love to sew but can’t sew. what should i do

as a present two years ago, I started on class and due to other life situations couldn’t finish the project, and while I can sew a basic stitch once I figure out how to get the machine to work (when someone shows me), I really want to learn to sew a complete project. I’d love to be able to understand the patterns i bought last year (thinking it would get me moving). I have wanted to learn how to sew since i was a child, and I decided to make my own dolls’ clothes—then realized I couldn’t, unless I could sew!

Maybe if I set a certain time on this one. I’m not sure.

I bought a meter of it which cost PHP25 with hard teflon which cost me PHP35. Went to a tailor and was able to produce 2 bag pads for only PHP30 as the labor. How kind of him. Anyways, I used the pad for my cute new bag. It was that huge but the base is poorly made as it of cloth.

Thanks to my new pads.

I realized that I don’t know how to sew. I have so many ideas and designs I want to create and clothes and costumes I’d rather make then buy that I want to learn how to to sew! I need help.

I would really like to make my own clothes and the first major thing I need to learn is how to sew.

The only thing from keeping me from hearing “Congrat-u-lations. You are the winner of Project Runway” is my inability to sew. My friend is suppsed to teach me soon!

i would like to learn how to use my mom’s sewing machine. my 1st project shall be an easy tote bag. i remember seeing a simple pattern on craftster.org…

but first i want to do some sewing by hand. i bought a book called “the cute book” that has patterns for lil felt critters. i’m going to make some for a friend’s upcoming b-day. gah! i adore cutesy things, so what perfect way to learn :)

I’m a nurse. It would be nice if I could make my own scrubs. I’m short. I would like to be able to hem things. I have a huge stack of clothes that require some sort of alteration. I buy them with the intention of taking them to be tailored and then I never do.

One step closer! Andrew recieved a sewing machine for his birthdayso we are on our way!
Now I am loking for classes or a teacher who can teach all of us how to sew.

ok i went and got everything, i thought i needed to make some aprons (seemed to be simple, lol). i cut out the pattern, etc. then I realized I have know idea how to thread the sewing machine. Making this happen is a new mission now.
