ABSOLUTE BEGINNER
Everyone can learn to sew!
We’re here to support you on your sewing journey with our collection of patterns, classes and fabrics, all perfect for an absolute beginner. Let us take you from your first stitch on a sewing machine, to your first me-made garment as we teach you how to sew.
Let’s get started…
Start by getting comfortable using a sewing machine and handling fabric and by sewing your first seam.
Browse our selection of easy makes to get you started on your sewing journey – bags, headscarves, simple skirts and t-shirts – all perfect for beginners.
One of the best parts about learning to sew is choosing fabric! Woven cotton is one of the easiest fabrics to cut and sew, and for Absolute Beginner projects we recommend medium weight cottons as they’re very durable and will withstand unpicking!
If you’re not sure where to start, why not begin with a kit made just for you! Get all you need to start your first sewing project with our specifically developed Beginner Sewing Kits
