So, your pants are too long. We've all been there, where the length of our legs just don't match the length of our trousers, and we must decide whether we should shorten our pants, lengthen our legs,...
Ever since I did this video showing how to make bias tape I've been getting questions about how to miter corners neatly when you use it. How do you get that neat corner? Do you wrap the whole thing and pin it and then start to sew? Do you sew one side at a time?
Christine Owen on Instagram: "Wearing my new @sewoveritlondon Oona dress today. I wasn't going to buy this it's strappy and a straight skirt, I didn't think I'd feel comfortable in it. But then Sew Over It released it as a kit (I do love a kit) and I couldn't resist it in this exclusive Midnight Rose cotton. I'm so glad I did its gorgeous especially for the current weather. I graded between the 12 bust and 14 waist and hips and added the waist ties rather than the elastic. I had to shorten the

I found this dress online and thought it was so cute but it was sold out. So I did what any crafty person would do. I ordered the fabric and then asked my friend Tracie if she would make it for me. I can not sew things, y’all. But didn’t it turn out so cute?…

Remember this Batman Costume? Well, I also made a Superman Costume. SO why not a Spiderman Costume? Well, I'll tell you a little something. I will NEVER make a spiderman costume again. It took forever to get all those web's in place. It's darling. But so not worth it. Because I don't have a little guy obsessed with SpiderMan. Use the Batman tutorial to see how I made the pattern pieces. Then come back here. For the pants you will cut the top in blue, and the bottom in red. Sew the bottom of the pants to the top. Do this on all four pieces. Then get your permanent fabric marker and draw your spider web lines. I marked ever inch in both directions. That way they came out even. Then sew the crotch seam together. And using the batman tutorial finish the pants by sewing up the sides and the inner seam. Then make the casing and slide the elastic in. Sew closed. For the shirt you will need one piece in red. Then cut the following pieces to fit on the front. For the back the main piece will be blue. Then cut the following pieces to complete it. Pin them in place. Then sew them in place. Take your permanent fabric marker and draw the web lines on the red fabric on the front of the shirt. And on the top of the back. Sew the shoulder seams together. The sleeves will be blue. Then cut this red piece to fit them. And draw the spiderweb lines on the red. Sew the red piece in place. Sew the sleeves to the shirt front and back. Then sew the sides together. This will complete the shirt. You can either sew a bottom belt of red, with spiderwebs on the shirt. Or you can sew it to the top of the pants, before you sew the pants together. Then cut out a pointed eye mask. Add elastic to the sides. And there you have it! A super comfy spiderman costume! Let me know if you give it a try! Or if you don't want to draw all those lines, head on over to my shop, and pick up one of the only two you'll ever see me make!!!

My love affair with Liberty fabric started about five years ago, and since then, I have amassed quite the collection. I just can’t help it, it’s so pretty! I must admit, I do collect more than I sew with it, but don’t we all have something like that? *CoughPleaseSayYesCough* Now, when you combine this love […]
Oh the joy of sleeves. Drafting can be fun. Here’s how to do it Step 1: Measure the length of the front and back armhole. You can sew the shoulders together and then measure, or measure the pattern pieces and remove the shoulder seam allowance from the measurement.

how to make car seat covers? Remove the material from your car seats with your seam ripper. Lay the craft paper on a flat surface, then lay your old material on top of it and trace around the shape. Sew the material together. If you chose leather, you will need to sew new darts into the leather. You can do this by laying the new material out and making a mark of where the darts are supposed to be. Sew in the new ones.
