5 Quick And Easy Sewing Projects For Beginners And Beyond

It might be one of the busiest times of the year, but that won't stop us from trying to squeeze in a sewing project here or there. We don't know about you, but we find that a quick or easy make is the perfect way to relax and take a break from the everyday hustle and bustle.

From stash-busters to new clothes, these makes are perfect for beginners, or anyone looking to unwind with a simple sew.

Roxy Jumper

The Ava Skirt is a perfect companion to the Roxy Jumper. The A-line style is timeless and with two hem lengths, it's a pattern that can be tailored just how you like it. There are only four pattern pieces too, making it a simple-yet-satisfying sew for sewists of all abilities.


Drawstring Bag


Sometimes a quick sew is just what's needed for a spot of respite and our go-to project is to sew up Drawstring Bag or two. They are perfect for using fabric scraps that are too big to throw away but too small for anything else. Plus, we're using ours as environmentally friendly gift-bags that can be used time and time again by your lucky loved one.

Sylvia Robe


The Sylvia Robe is a great make for lounging in elegance no matter the season. It's a must-try make if you're looking to get to grips with lightweight and drapey fabrics, and with no zips or buttonholes, it's a pattern that can be whipped up in an evening. Choose between two lengths and make yourself a gorgeous robe!


Ultimate Trousers

Trousers might seem like a daunting proposition, but with only four pattern pieces we've designed our Ultimate Trousers for trouser-making newbies. There are no complicated or confusing techniques and only four pattern pieces to contend with. If you need an extra helping hand, we have a Stitch School course that will take you through every step of fitting them and sewing them.

We hope you're feeling inspired to sew your next simple project!
