Not sure what to sew first? Start here.
The First 4 Projects is a free illustrated roadmap that takes you from nervous beginner to finished garment — in the right order. Each project builds on the last, so you always know exactly what to practise next.
What's inside:
• Page Zero — threading your machine, winding a bobbin, and sewing your first straight line
• Project 1: The Scrunchie — sew a tube, turn it, thread elastic
• Project 2: The Envelope Pillow — clean hems, straight lines, crisp pivots (no zipper!)
• Project 3: The Lined Tote — lining, boxed corners, sturdy straps, professional finish
• Project 4: The Lounge Shorts — pattern pieces, curves, and an elastic waistband — your first wearable garment
Every project includes a materials and cut list, numbered step-by-step instructions, and beginner tips. No experience needed — just a sewing machine and some scrap fabric.
Details: PDF, 7 pages, instant download. Free forever.
