Dictionary of common sewing terms, with pictures

December 27, by Anne Weaver. Leave a Comment

In preparation for her Learning To Sew series to begin at the new year, Amber from Crazy Little Projects wrote up a handy little dictionary of common sewing terms (with pictures!).  If you are new to sewing (or planning to learn to sew in the future), it’s a good way to familiarize yourself with some of the words you’ll see on patterns and tutorials. Go to Crazy Little Projects for the dictionary.
