what can i sew now?

Curtains, aprons, cushion covers, door sausages, duvet covers/pillowcases... come to my house and teach me... I borrowed my Mum's machine a month ago and haven't managed to thread it yet

What about making aprons? Know that sounds strange but my sister fancied a 'retro' pinny - you know the kind with the full bodice with ruffles round it - thought I would get her one for her birthday as she has started baking, cooking etc from scratch - however they were over £20!!!! In the end made one for £6 (not including the pattern which I have for making more!) Could you possibly sell these, and also make the small tea pinnies that are only a half size - lets face it to cut back on the washing we may all start wearing them again!!!!

Thanks .. some great ideas here.

The sewing machine came with a dvd on how to thread it, thread the bobbin, install zippers and make button holes. ITs great idea to have a dvd with the sewing machine as otherwise i wouldnt have had a clue!

Hi frugalsparkle,

There's a very recent thread on this that should give you more ideas so I've added your thread to it to keep the suggestions together.
