Happy Spring to Everyone!

     I hope this newsletter finds you in nice weather and daffodils and tulips galore.

     As we continue our series on sewing tools, this month we're going to talk about measuring tools.
 This is important toward completing your sewing project because accurate measurements are what determine the success of the garment.

     I would like to wish everyone a Good Passover and a Blessed Easter.

Using Measuring Tools To Help You With Your Sewing Projects


     It's important to have proper measurements for:
  • Buying the correct size pattern
  • Accurately pinning a pattern piece on the fabric grain
  • Measuring hems so they are even  
     The 3 basic tools I use in my sewing are a soft tape measure, a ruler, and my favorite sewing tool of all, a slide gauge.

     Next month, we will discuss how to mark your patterns using a tracing wheel and tracing paper.

     Have a great month.
