My tip is to make multiples of each pattern as you learn it. I like to try different colors and prints to see how they all turn out. If I make several at the same time, I don’t forget how to do each tricky piece or make mistakes as I go along. Once I’ve made several, I am ready to try a new pattern and start the process all over again with a new challenge! And I have lots of lovely doll clothes and accessories made from each pattern.
My favorite sewing trick is to read the directions all the way through before starting, Iron as you go if needed, and make sure you have every thing ready before you start.

My favorite tip/trick is to hold the threads out the back when starting to sew to keep your machine from “eating” your fabric and to use a coffee filter for finer fabrics or knits. A real life saver! I’ve already passed a lot of these little secrets along to my granddaughters who like to sew.
My favorite sewing tip is using the double faced tape for zippers. It changed my sewing!
