In this weeks Lessons with Lindsay Video, I share with you the many different options for finishing the edges of your fabric when sewing garments. I’ll also show you step-by-step how to create a lovely French seam and share several other tips and tricks for beautifully constructed children’s clothing.
Edge finishing can be a little bit tricky if you are new to sewing. Luckily there are some easy tools that you can use, if you are a beginner and don’t want to invest a lot of money in fancy sewing equipment. The more advance you become, the more fun tools you’ll want to add to your collection, like a serger or a machine with fancier stitch settings. But first things first, let’s watch this weeks Lesson with Lindsay that is sponsored by Baby Lock Sewing and Embroidery Machines. You are not going to want to miss this video!
