Head to Lincraft, they have a rack of free patterns for small projects. You might find some inspiration in there. I think they do have a pattern for a book bag (not that you really need one), there is also one for kiddie art smock.
Just though, how about a table runner for Christmas?
Cloth pads? Thats how I started! I just looked up a few patterns, did something up, and went for it. It was a learning experience But bar the first two, I have 20 winged pads ranging from one layer two 3 layers, backed with PUL, and topped with micrrofleece.
i just started making a pink velvet dress for dd pattern less that flares out with hot pink velvet. I need to do the top tho make it into a corset like design in the back with ribbon straps. Made it with stretch crush velvet so she can have a tight dress or skirt. 4 equal panels and didn't sew the bottom up leaving it open and sewed in 4 triangles of material one is each and it looks good.
try a making a pillow cover or hand bag or something?
did you forget jazz'z dress leasha???? thats looks great!
What do all those knobs on the machine do? I've forgotten? They just look confusing and ominous and make me feel bewildered. The only knob that I am familiar with is the one trying to figure out how to sew......
Nelle, DON'T make a mans shirt as your first pattern! You may be slightly retarded like me and think 'How hard can a mans shirt be?!', but don't mistake me, they are flamin hard, and my McCalls 3 Hour Shirt has become a 4 Month Not Supposed To Close, Because That's Exactly What I Intended All Along Muscle Tee
