You've threaded your sewing machine... now it's time to practice! If you're brand new to sewing, it can feel a bit intimidating to start on a real project straight away. In this video, I'll guide you through four simple practice exercises that will help you build confidence and get comfortable controlling your sewing machine. In this tutorial you'll learn how to: 0:00 Recap 1:20 Sew straight lines 9:23 Turn corners neatly 12:12 Sew smooth curves 15:36 Practice controlling your machine by sewing your own name These exercises are designed for complete beginners and are a great way to improve your control before moving on to your first sewing project. If you haven't already watched my first beginner sewing video where I explain the parts of a sewing machine, how to wind a bobbin and how to thread your machine, I'd recommend starting there before coming back to this one.
