Threads

One of my favorite sewing magazines is Threads. I find it inspiring AND practical. In their July issue they had a handy dandy tear out section called Teach Yourself to Sew. Well I realized today that if you go to this page and sign up for their (very helpful and interesting newsletter) you can get your own pdf copy of Teach Yourself to Sew!

PLUS! There’s also some great links in the sidebar there:

Assemble your tools:
Pins (PDF Format)
Hand and sewing machine needles
Scissors (PDF Format)

Patterns:
Pattern envelopes

Fabrics & Cutting:

Stitching:

Next, sew your seams (PDF Format)

Check it out!

NAYY (no association yadda yadda . . . just passing on the info.!)
