Sewing Tools


What do you need to get started sewing?

From a pattern:

  • sewing machine
  • thread
  • bobbins
  • marking tool (preferred: chalk)
  • needles (preferred: flower head - located in quilting section)
  • sharp scissors
  • measuring tape
  • iron
  • seam ripper
  • squirt bottle and cloth (for fusing interfacing)

For drafting:
  • pattern making paper (I get mine off Amazon)
  • rulers: yard stick, 12", 6", and curved (you don't NEED the curved, but trust me, it's great)

Extras:
  • pinking shears
  • small scissors (for those tight spaces)
  • hemming guide
  • seam iron (small iron that makes it easier to iron small areas)






Tip: you can use flat head needles to hang pictures on the wall without leaving visible holes -- especially handy when you're renting!

  1. I recently got involved in sorting out a VAT issue while helping with a small business, and it quickly became clear how stressful these moments can be. When deadlines are close and cash flow is tight, you start looking for solutions that are realistic, not complicated. That’s how I ended up spending time on site, trying to understand what options actually exist. What I appreciated most was how clear and calm everything felt. The information is presented in a way that doesn’t overwhelm you, and it feels like it’s built for people who are already under pressure. Reading through the details helped me better understand how vat finance can be used responsibly to keep things moving without panic. Overall, it left me with a much more confident and positive feeling about handling VAT challenges when they come up.
