My aunt doesn’t know how to work my late grandma’s sewing machine, so I got her this book. I DO know how to sew and I think the book is very informative and straightforward without being too long! I like that there are video examples in addition to the text.

Haven’t started yet, but I’m super excited to get going. I’ve had my sewing machine for over year and I’m ready to start using it to make things. Also, the QR codes that take you to the videos is a nice touch👍🏾. I just open my book and saw them.

Wish I'd realized this book is more focused on a sewing machine than it is hand sewing. Not bad (although there are still some edit errors in there, like at the start of the book!) and has good overall information, and some mild product placement as recommendations for tools. Has a lot of great details about sewing machines as well as measurements which is nice. Also odd, ordered this from TikTok here and got it in an Amazon package?

"My son wants to learn to sew... But won't take my class! 🤷🏽‍♀️ My son Miles is starting a fashion brand and what started out as making t-shirts has become wanting to make custom garments so now he needs to learn to sew. Yippee becasue someone needs to carry this knowledge to future generations! I teach an amazing 6 week CO-ED sewing course, but he wants private lessons.  So here I am late Friday night in pajamas teaching him how to sew. While teaching my 6 eeek course, I developed a strategy for teaching sewing that is perfect for impatient beginners... people who just want to get right into making cool stuff.  That's definintely my son (the apple doesn't fall far.) 😆 So we took two hours and followed along with my book to teach him the basics of using a sewing machine.  Follow along with his progress because he's actually pretty darn good at it already." #sewing #isew #imakemyownclothes #learningtosew #beginnersewing #sewingforbeginners #menwhosew

I’m a DIY girly through and through 🤭 Here’s how to bind your own book.  I never thought it could be this easy.  Once I get a heavy duty paper cutter I’ll be unstoppable. (cue evil villain laugh 😆) BUT I’m not crazy!  Bulk orders will go through Amazon. There’s definitely an advantage to printing them myself though.  I can add the folded practice sheets and I can sign each copy.  Either way, I’m excited to provide this much needed resource for people who learn like me… getting right to the good stuff and including step-by-step visuals. You can find the ebook version on my website. • • • #sewing #learntosew #diy #bookmaking #isew #sewingforbeginners #beginnersewing #bookbinding #imadethis #isewmyclothes #imakemyownclothes #sewingforkids #diyclothes #diyfashion

I’ve noticed this beginner sewing mistake a ton with my students. If you’re having a hard time pulling your fabric away after making a stitch with your sewing machine, turn the hand wheel towards you until the needle is at it’s highest position. It’ll release the loop from the last stitch and pull away freely. #sewing #diy #isew #sewingforbeginners #learntosew #sewingtutorial #beginnersewing #sewingmachine #sewingmachinetips

I think he’s a natural 🤷🏽‍♀️ If you want to learn how to sew straight, try drawing straight lines on paper with a ruler then practice sewing on the lines.  The secret is to go slow.  There are no rewards for how fast you can sew, but sewing straight will give you better results on your final garment. #learntosew #sewing #isew #howtosew #sewingtutorial #sewtok #menwhosew #beginnersewing #sewingforbeginners

Did you listen when your mom or grandmother tried to teach you how to sew? I never ever thought I’d make a career out of it, but I’m so grateful that I listened to my mom!  As it turms out both my grandmothers could sew and one was also a hat maker.  My late mother-in-law also sewed so my son has a ton of ancestors rooting him on. Does anyone in your family sew? #sewing #learntosew #sewingforbeginners #beginnersewing #sewingdiy #sewfun #sewtok #menwhosew #sewingforboys

Replying to @TheGrayHairedNana 1. The best sewing machine is the one you’ll use 👍🏾  2. I like when sewing machines have speed control for beginners. Auto up/down needle position and a one step buttonhole are features that make your sewing journey easier along the way. 3. Mechanical sewing machines tend to last longer because they don’t have computerized parts and the more metal parts a machine has makes it fixable so they last longer. Really inexpensive machines have more plastic parts, but if that’s what you can afford go for it. 4. My ultimate recommendation is the Husqvarna Viking 118 because it has all the beginner features I like, it’s mechanical, and is proven to last a good while at the cheapest price point I could find. 5. Check FB marketplace for a cheaper price if you don’t mind buying used. Sometimes people bought them and never used them. 6. The bottom line is to check reviews and get something you’ll use because we’re learning to sew in 2025 🙌🏾 #sewing #learntosew #sewingforbeginners #beginnersewing #isew #diy #sewingmachine #letssew

Do you have to keep retreading your needle over and over? Here’s a beginner sewing tip. Make sure you pull enough thread away from the needle so that the thread doesn’t get pulled back up through the machine while sewing. #sewing #diy #isew #sewingforbeginners #learntosew #sewingtutorial #beginnersewing

Not Here! We’re cutting out the fluff and focusing on quick, easy tips and shortcuts. You’ll get all the good stuff without the headache.   Since we’re about to go into another 6 week sewing class, I decided to release this book first to my class on Thursday and then to the public this weekend in both book and ebook formats.

Want to learn to print your own book? In this mini series I’ll show you how to print your own paper back book and bind it from start to finish. Today we’re printing out the covers. I started out using the Canon Pixma TS3520 which was $50 on Amazon. I’m not sure if the price has changed, but for that price the quality is really good. I just upgraded to the Canon G3270 because of the cost of ink. It’s $149, but prints a lot more color prints before you need to change the ink. It’s also very important to use photo paper if your cover is full color. I use the Canon matte photo paper which is reasonably priced as well. Next time, I’ll show you how to crease your cover and print your pages to save paper.  #bookmaking #diy #diycrafts #diycraftsnmore #selfpublishing #selfpublished #sewing #sewingbook #writer #writing #learntosew #sewingforbeginners #beginnersewing #bookstagram #bookaddict #bookprinting
