Reply To: Would Line to Try Sewing, Never Done it

Maybe try our half apron as it’s very simple and can be completed easily but, before that, I would get the machine and just practice sewing straight linesand sewing seams, so that you can get comfortable with the machine.  Once you feel like you’re getting the hang of it, try making the half apron.  Boxers are actually an excellent beginner project to start with.  My first project was quite similar, I made pajama shorts.  The only part, I would skip over would be the button/buttonhole part and maybe keep the fly open or stitch it shut.  We’ll save buttonholes for when you’re feeling more comfortable. But never give up and believe me, all beginners feel frustrated and overwhelmed at first.  Just go at your own pace.  That’s why we created these videos, so that you can watch when you want, pause, and rewind if you need it.  And if you ever have any questions, we’ll do our best to help. Good luck!
