have you ever envied people who can make their own clothes or alter something to fit them perfectly? in just a year, i've gone from being clueless to an expert at the ins and outs of sewings, so i've learned exactly what you need to get started. figuring out what to buy as a beginner can be very confusing, so i've created a list of some of the basic supplies i wish i would've bought when i first started sewing.
