If anyone is in dire need of some apron patterns, it’s me. My kitchen looks like a tornado went off in it after I attempt a new recipe. Melted butter is spattered on the stovetop.

This printable sewing pattern is sure to be a hit, too. This little […]

I must admit, one of the reasons I wanted to learn to sew was to make my own purses and bags. (Luckily, as an editor of AllFreeSewing, I get to see a lot of free sewing patterns.) Honestly, every time I go to the bag section of a store there are always so many options […]
Figuring out how to organize your sewing room is not always easy. In a perfect world, we would all have a spacious, well-lit room filled with yards and yards of well-organized fabric and the hum of a brand new machine. Truth is though, we all cannot be so lucky. Most of us live in crowded […]
