Warm-Up ProjectsNow that wersquore all on the same page as far as supplies and techniques letrsquos warm up a bit on some mini-projects that will get you back

in gear and ready to party Irsquom going into this book assuming that you have some sewing experience but these projects ought to give

you a solid idea of whether yoursquore ready for the ones that come after Wersquore working on double-checking the straightness of seams theconsistency of seam allowances and your comfort level with the terms Irsquoll be using in the rest of the book I feel good about where you

are now but nobody ever regretted doing a lap before committing to a location so letrsquos tour your machine and flex your fingers

1 Use a glass or bowl to draw a circle Trace this onto newsprint printer paper or card stock Cut two

circles from cotton fabric

2 Place the circles right sides together then stitch around the curved edge using a 1 frasl 2 (13cm) seam

allowance and leaving a 2 (51cm) opening unstitched

3 Clip the curve around the entire seam allowance up to but not through the stitching to ease the

seam allowance and permit you to turn the circle right-side out without any puckering or pulling

4 Turn right-side out and press nice and smooth

5 Fill with herbs like lavender orange peel or rose petals Topstitch around the outer edge catching the

opening shut as you do Place in your dresser drawer with your undies or sweaters Yum

Small Drawstring ToteThis small and super-simple tote doesnrsquot ask you to do anything you havenrsquot done before but it gives you a chance to think about

construction and order of operations Use ribbon cord or a long strip of fabric folded in two for your drawstring

1 Cut two rectangles of fabric measuring 10 times 6 (254cm times

152cm) Place right sides together and stitch a 1 frasl 2 (13cm) seam

allowance down one long side pivoting at the corner Continue

across the bottom edge pivot again and stitch up the second long

side Leave the top edge unstitched

2 Clip the corners at the bottom of the bag Pink the edges of theseam allowances

3 Press under the upper edge 1 frasl 4 (64cm) then again another3 frasl 4 (19cm) taking care to keep the seam allowances open Stitch

around the entire upper edge leaving an opening about

1 (25cm) wide unstitched

4 Turn right-side out Thread a drawstring through the opening

and draw up the bag Done

Round Sachet With HerbsThis project can be as simple or as complicated as you likemdashadd ribbon trim ruffles buttons and beads almost anything you like

if you want to jazz it up I like it best in simple beautiful fabrics (I often pull some from my scraps when Irsquom done working with

fabrics I really really love and want to see every day)



SECTION 1HOME DEacuteCOROne of the most popular types of sewingespecially for those new to stitching but also for

those who have been sewing for years and years

is sewing for the home Itrsquos not just for the obvious

reason that all of us have homes and want them

to be beautiful maybe more importantly we all

want our homes to look the way we feel and tomake us want to be there more often The joy

and excitement of welcoming someone into a

room where you have designed and stitched

every drape pillow slipcover and throw is really

unparalleled Yoursquoll never look at a bare roomthe same way again Get ready to be drunk with

power people

PATCHWORK

AND QUILTINGThere has been a remarkable growth in the

quilting world the past five years and most of it

is fueled by younger quilters with a more modern

streamlined design sense joining the craft The

art of using small cuts of fabric to create large-

scale textile designs has evolved to include

brighter colors more inventive shapes modern

design sense and adventurous combinations

The projects that follow in this section introduce

you to the modern quilting movement throughall the basic skills and give you the chance to

consider piecing fabrics together to create a sum

greater than its parts

SECTION 3

BAGSIrsquom always surprised at how many peoplereally really want to sew handbags And then I

remember how many bags and totes and satchels

and purses I myself possess and suddenly I

understand There is an art to bag-making but

since there are really only so many ways to put a

bag together yoursquoll find that the same principles

and techniques come up over and over again

These shapes are core basics and will serve

you well from formal situations to the everyday

You might find as I did that suddenly all you

need are a few basic bag styles and plenty of

embellishments and yoursquore set for a long while

Two words matching handbag



Level 1 | Everyday

Shoulder BagI lo ve a small under-the-shoulder bag thatrsquos

just the right size to fit m y wallet and phone

plus a fe w little bitsmdashbut not quite big

enough for all the luggage that four children

can expect me to tote for them all o ver

creation Add a little funk y fabric for lining

and this bag transforms to something trul y

special I strongl y suggest making more

than one especiall y with the extra pop it

would get from adding piping

SUPPLIES

frac12 yd (046 m) of mid-weight

fabric for the body of the bag

frac12 yd (046 m) of lighter

weight fabric for the lining

1 yd (091 m) of

piping cording

Bias tape to cover

the cording

frac12 yd (046 m) of mid-

to-heavy-weight fusibleinterfacing

frac12 yd (046 m) of light-

to-sheerweight fusible

interfacing

Matching thread

5 TRAP STRAPS BETWEEN BAG AND LINING

Slide the lining wrong-side out over the outer bag so the two are

right sides together The tabs are sandwiched in the middle with the

D-ring caught on the tab Pin the edge

6 STITCH EDGE

Stitch a frac12 (13cm) seam around the entire upper edge of the bag

leaving a small opening to turn right-side out and catching the tab

ends securely in the seammdashyou can even consider backstitching

over the tab ends as you sew past them especially if you plan to

carry super heavy items in your bag like spare batteries or vintage jewelry Up to you

7 TURN RIGHT-SIDE OUT AND PRESS

Reach through the opening in the lining and turn the whole thing

right-side out teasing out the fabric until the whole bag spills out

and yoursquore able to stuff the lining back inside Press

8 TOPSTITCH

Topstitch around the upper edge to close the opening you used to

turn and to create a finished feel to the bag Take care as you stitch

past your snap

SECTION 4

SEWING FOR

CHILDRENWhen I was little my mom sewed for me and my

sister Sometimes wersquod get matching outfitsmdashall

three of us It was the 70s you know how it goes

And as ridiculous as it sounded to middle-school-

me now I look back and those matching-outfit

days hold some of my dearest memories Now

that I have children of my own I love making them

things at my machine that build memories and

bring all of us joy And when they come to me to

request something special sewn on my machine

Well it just doesnrsquot get much better than that

Level 1 | ReversibleGirlrsquos DressI came up with this dress when my daughters

were itty bitties I was so bummed everytime they out-grew something Irsquod made with

hoarded fabricmdashonce they were too big to

wear it I was forced to pack it away and lost

the chance to look at the prints I love so

much Step one Make it reversible so I can

use two fabrics at the same time (and so

we always have a spare outfit near at hand

for random food incidents) Step two Make

it adjustable with tie straps that really tie

so the dress can be raised and lowered at

the underarm as she grows giving her the

chance to wear it as a dress to start as a

tunic later and as a swing top before it gets

retired Irsquom all about making the good stuff

last just a little bit longer

Level 4 | Lay-FlatBackpackMy kids have lots and lots (and LOTS) of bags and

buckets and carryalls for toting their treasures around

along with anything else they can find and fit inside

nubby erasers stickers and

they need a bit more of a

backpack to hold it all This

one gives them little pockets

for the little things but also

unzips all the way flat to

allow total accessmdashand

to discourage small hands

from filling it up super fullWorking with a two-way zip

will change the way you think

about the possibilities of

closures



152

1 STITCH POCKET PIECE

Place the main pocket (in the main fabric) right sides together with

the lining Stitch all four sides leaving an opening Turn right-side out

press edge crisply then topstitch along that upper edge for a crisp

finish

Repeat with the pencil holder

2 CREATE LOOPS IN PENCIL HOLDER

Place the pencil holder on top of pocket (right-side up) Line up the

left edge and stitch through all layers to secure

Create a loop by placing a pencil or your finger under the panel

to space then pin it to secure Continue across the pencil panel

to make as many pencil spots (or mini-pockets ) as yoursquod like Six

pencil spots is probably goodmdashwho needs more than six pens and

pencils Think about making a fat spot for a chubby highlighter too

Adjust the loops until the end of the pencil holder is even with the

edge of the larger pocket

3 STITCH BETWEEN LOOPS

With the pencil loops pinned in place take the pockets to your

machine Stitch the loops down securely by sewing between each

loop from top to bottom (or bottom to top) and backstitching ateach end

Stitch the Pockets and Pencil HolderCreate a main pocket and then create a pencil holder by making another similar pocket that yoursquoll then use to

create pencil loops

1 STITCH BUTTONHOLES

Using the markings on the pattern pieces set the buttonholes and

stitch them in place Clip open the holes (Check out the Crash

Course on buttonholes on the next page as needed)

2 STITCH ON BUTTONS

Add buttons with a shank

Buttons and ButtonholesThe classic pea coat look includes four or six buttons double-breasted You can use fewer but the lapels flap down

most attractively if you stick with four or six in a two-by-two configuration

SECTION 5

CLOTHINGWhen I first learned to sew I only ever thought of

sewing clothing It was what my mother made and

her mother before her It seemed practical and

familiar and I wanted to make clothes more than

anything in the world I still love sewing apparel

and feel a very specific type of satisfaction when

I try on a garment I have made myself and findthat it fits right and feels good and know with

total certainty that no one else has something

just like it There are usually more steps to sewing

a garment but in the end itrsquos really all sewing a

seammdashnot that different from any of the other

projects in this book If yoursquove been sewing

straight lines for a while but are putting off making

clothes these patterns will take you into a whole

new territory that is as addictive as it is

exhilarating Irsquom a big believer in simple

wardrobe staples the kind with classiclines that let the fabric be the star Feel

free to indulge yourself a little here and

buy some really special fabric for your

garmentsmdashyoursquoll never feel as pretty

as you do walking down the street in a

fabulous piece of clothing you made

yourself Viva la sewing



180

Level 2 | A-Line SkirtWith Peekaboo Pleat

Fine I admit it I love me a sexy librarian look

Itrsquos true As a card-carrying nerdophile there

is something about a classic buttoned-down

look that makes me feel both pretty and

prim at the same time This clean skirt with

its a-line shape and peekaboo pleat has it

all wrapped up Making the pleat is simple

adding the pocket gives a touch of color andthe delicious D-ring belted closure means

neither zippers NOR buttons for you Itrsquos like

a skirt paradise Make this one up in heavier

fabrics like twill corduroy wools or denim

The inset for the pleat can be any fabric you

choosemdashmay I suggest something truly

special that yoursquove been saving for just such

an occasion

CUT PIECES

Begin by cutting all the pattern pieces bodice front (1 on fold)

bodice back (2) skirt front (1 on fold) skirt back (2) pocket (4)bodice front lining (1 on fold) bodice back lining (2)

For the straps cut a length of fabric 11 frasl 2 (38cm) wide by 30

(762cm) long This can be a cross-cut strip of fabric cut from

selvage to selvage

Cut Fabric Pieces

Make Bodice

1 STITCH DARTS

Stitch darts at the waist on the bodice front and bodice back

These allow for graceful shaping and are designed for a B or C cup

Remember always begin sewing a dart at the larger end heading

toward the point And never backtack tie a hand knot (See page

182 for a Crash Course on darts)

Press toward the center Repeat with the lining (As with bags or

other projects anything you do to the outer shell of the dress yoursquoll

need to do the same to the lining so the two will fit together)

2 STITCH BODICE TOGETHER

Place the bodice front right sides together with bodice back Stitch

the side seams using a 5 frasl 8 (16cm) seam allowance Press seam

allowances open Repeat with the lining

Try this Too

This jacket works so well in any fabric but I highly recommend the experience ofsewing with the best fabrics you can--yoursquoll love both the process and the product so

much more See if you canrsquot score a really great wool tweed (check the resources

section in the back for ideas of where to begin) and fall in love with this classic fabric

that sews up so beautifully

The binding you use on the interior seams of this

jacket is bias tapemdashwhich I recommend for the

binding of your Sewing Machine Cover (see page

64) Such different applications but the same

skill for each

Working on this jacket is a reminder of how a

shaped or curved seam can really affect the

overall performance of a garmentmdashor any sewn

object Try the same approach by making the TeaCozy next (see page 76) where curved seams

create an entirely unexpected shape for the

project

When you complete a challenging project

sometimes the best next step is to go back to the

basics and take a rest Move to the Ribboned

Envelope Pillow next (see page 16) and remind

yourself how soothing straight seams can be

Conclusion Learning to se w isnrsquot something you do once and never

do again Itrsquos a skill yes but itrsquos also an art and more

When you first touch a se wing machine it seems like a

completely foreign world but I think most of us quickly

learn that itrsquos wa y more than that

There is something transformative about sewing

something that allo ws us to take ourselves out of our

daily li ves forget our worries and escape to something

bigger While the project yoursquore working on might seem

small when you put needle to fabric you are part of

something that began long before you learned to sew and

will continue long after a trajector y of imagination and

creation that ties you to women you ha ve ne ver met but who share something with you Sewing can allo w you to

both dream and realize to imagine and create to leap and

to land It is truly something unique and special and like

opera can ignite a fire in your soul that you didnrsquot kno w

you lacked but that burns bright and illuminates you and

e verything in your path

I realize Irsquom going all hyperbole here but theexcitement and fulfillment I feel when I se w is

unparalleled and something I treasure and hold dear

Once you learn to use your machine and work with various

fabrics there is nothing you canrsquot learn and make You

ha ve the po wer

Rock on Little Stitcher and set forth in this brave new

world to make and become
