What's your best sewing tip for beginners? ✂️

I'm 15 and I'm making my first dress by myself rather than my grandma helping me. Im making a 1960s dress since it's a simple pattern. And watching this video helped a lot so thank you 😊😊

Recently got a Brother cs7000i sewing machine, I upcycled my fiancé’s flannel to make our daughter a fall dress, used her old baby towels that she outgrew to make her rags, and made her a small purse. I recently became a stay at home mom, I was a pediatric nurse, to homeschool my children and it’s so exciting to have a hobby to play with. 🧵

Apply interfacing to uncut fabric, so simple, but I had never thought of it. Thanks.

[MarieH]

As always Jen, You’ve brought very good and sound advice for beginners! If they follow these simple tips, they’ll definitely be successful and gain the confidence to make things that they’ll be happy with in the long run! Thank You for All that You Share!- Marie

My first project was a kitchen curtains 3 month's ago now I do kid's pants pillows sheets still new to sewing but alway loved it last week I did throw cushion 💃💃💃👏👏👏👏

[lindabrown]

Never thought of cutting out the fabric and interfacing as one. I always wash my fabric due to cleanliness. Your hair is beautiful!

[joycemitchell]

You do a great job of explaining this machine in your videos. Thank you so much. I wanted to order a new machine and I'm sold on this one. I'll continue to watch you videos going forward. Thank you for doing this.

I'm so glad you're not buying into all of this advertising companies that are trying to get your YouTube to buy things just to be on the channel or subscribe..

[curtriceennis]

Such useful information here. Though I'm not really a stranger to sewing on a machine, I consider myself a beginner, and, I agree with you about starting with easy projects. TYSM for sharing your knowledge with us.

Great tips. These will definitely make my sewing more enjoyable but I’m a little mad because they’re so common sense and I never thought of them. Genuine thanks.

Colourfast everything, always wash on the cold setting, and wash anything with elastic on delicate.

[deborahannreid]

I just recently purchased the 7000i. Looking forward to the videos. Thanks!
