Beginning Sewing

The first Beginning Sewing class of the year went well today.  Most of my students are new to sewing and I always love being able to introduce them to sewing and their machine.  The biggest learning curves are usually the machine and sewing terms. Our projects will be a pillowcase, pajama bottoms and tote bag from the book titled, Sew Easy Pajama Pants by Cindy Taylor Oates.  The other book we're using is Nancy Zieman's Sew with Confidence.  It's such a wonderful resource for sewing terms and tips.  It will be a great companion for the new sewer.
