The third video in my First Steps series covers everything a beginner needs to know about buying and cutting (or ripping) fabric. Next time you venture into a fabric shop, you’ll be able to step right up to the counter and say, “I’ll take 5/8 yards of this fabric, a fat quarter of that fabric, and a few of these fat eights, thanks,” and you’ll know what you’re talking about. Then, when you get back to your sewing room, you can cut everything up for your next project. Enjoy!

I do some sewing, but have mostly taught myself. Your site is so helpful! Thank you!
