Beginner Sewing Patterns

May 24th, 2006

For those of us who craft or sew, using sewing patterns can seem a little daunting task to learn the how to use them especially when you are just beginning to learn.  There are symbols which represent very important stuff, but somehow is quite well decoded.  However, there is hope with smaller pattern companies like Sew Fast Sew Easy.

While I have to admit I have taken sewing lessons at Sew Fast Sew Easy, I found their patterns very easy right after completing my first class.  They provide a challenge and a great fit.  In a scurry to get together my summer wardrobe, I have made a drawstring pant in light-weight linen using their drawstring pant pattern and am currently working on the large tote bag pattern.   

I am next moving onto their 1/4 circle skirt pattern and their online learning video with the pattern for a makeup bag.  I would love to take one of these to the beach.  This company stands out to me for its cutting edge products.  If you can’t make it to one of their NYC classes, don’t worry.  They have two well written and wonderful books.  However, I have my eyes on their next t-shirt class. 

I know that you will love Sew Fast Sew Easy as much as I do.
