Sewing Green Projects
any ideas on what i should create with a sewing machine?
i’m getting a sewing machine in a little while and i want suggestions on what i should create. put the type of project (i.e. pillow, blanket, pjs, etc…) and what type of fabric i should use…(i.e. cotton, rayon, etc….) and if you want to suggest a color/pattern of the fabric, then put that too (i.e. plaid, striped, polka dots, yellow, black, green, color with monkey, etc…)
i already know how to use a sewing machine. i had one a couple years ago, but i’m getting a new one……and i just want suggestions on what project i should do…
k. well to add to the fabric color, etc….i just want opinions and stuff…. like what’s your fave one. i’ll check it out, and yeah. i just want suggestions to check out. i like having people suggesting fabric color/designs cuz my friend did, and i totally loved it!
This site has all of the answers, including projects – http://www.simplicity.com/index.cfm?page=section/classroom/sewinglessons/sewing101hp.cfm
Colors and fabric patterns are personal choices and that you have to decide on your own.
Look on the back of a pattern envelope and there will be suggestions for type of fabric to use and if the pattern is suitable for plaids or one-way designs.
