The Sewing Book

Another helpful guide and it has patterns to help you practice. I got this book back in 2019 or 2020, something like that. The author is the woman behind Seamwork, which I just figured out this year. Easy to follow instructions and a glossary of term...

I'm a sucker for pics and detailed instructions. I've found that this book comes in handy when I'm unsure of pattern instructions or a term. I reference this book often.

My go-to for cutting fabric. It comes in different sizes depending on your needs. Unlike scissors, a rotary cutter won't tire out your hand. Your cuts are more precise, just keep your blade sharp!

Must have in your sewing room! The see-through feature allows you to see what you're cutting. Great for sewists and crafters.
