Easy sewing projects for beginners

If you don’t have a sewing machine or are just a beginner and don’t want to splash out just yet but would love to make some sewing craft projects to make or sell.

Most importantly try with patterns that don’t use too much material and are quick to make how about some of these?

Another really great tip is to make sure that any material you buy you can buy again and it’s not a once off especially if the item you start making becomes wildly popular in that specific material! This will also come in handy when you have to relist items on Etsy or Amazon so you can just reuse the same listing.

If you have to start a new listing and you have been using social media like Pinterest for it and it’s now unavailable buyers will be going to a blank page and quickly leaving.
