/0 Comments/in , , /by

Getting into sewing is exciting, but it can be a little scary too. Learning new things is always an adventure, for good or bad. But the more you know and learn and grow, the better you are! So we’ve compiled a short list of 5 sewing techniques every new seamstress should try (and master)!

5 Sewing Techniques All New Seamstresses Should Try

1. Blind Hem

How to Sew A Blind Hem in 5 Easy Step - Must Repin for Later!

A blind hem isn’t used as much as it used to be, but if you’re wanting to sew heirloom quality  children’s clothing with woven fabrics, it is definitely a skill to learn! It’s also great for hemming ladies skirts and dresses. You can find an awesome tutorial for learning a blind hem right here! It’s PERFECT for BSD patterns like Alice for ladies or for girls!

2. Understitching

Understitching is a great way to add an amazingly professional finish to your work. It’s one of those often overlooked sewing techniques that we all should know about. Many Bella Sunshine patterns employ this technique for a beautiful finish, not the least among them is the Sahara. You can even practice your understitching by making matching mommy and daughter Saharas! Learn more about understitching by reading this informational post!

3. Stay Stitching

 

Stay stitching is a MUST have skill when working with about any fabric. It’s the thing that keeps necklines and armscyes from getting all wonky as you’re constructing a pattern. While not necessary for all garments, it’s especially useful in sewing v-necks like the Regan Raglan for ladies and kids. Best part? This one is FREE! You can learn more about what stay stitching is and why it’s so important in this post.

5 Reasons to Rock Out with PDF Patterns

/0 Comments/in , , /by

If you know Bella Sunshine, then you at least have a basic knowledge of what PDF patterns are. But what makes them so great? Why buy those over paper patterns? I have some great reasons to share with you to prove why PDF patterns rock!

5 Reasons to Rock Out with PDF Patterns

 

PDF Patterns Make Midnight Shopping Fun

We all get the urge to shop at odd hours. Or maybe you learn that your kid needs a specific outfit for school the next day that doesn’t exist in their closet. What do you do? With PDF patterns, late night shopping is so easy! You don’t even have to get dressed. Just browse, click, buy, print! You can’t argue with shopping in your PJs without having to leave your couch.

PDF Patterns Often Have the All-Important Layers Feature

Paper patterns can be confusing when you’re trying to get the right size cut. The layers feature that all Bella Sunshine patterns have make that aggravation a thing of the past. Only print the size you NEED to make the confusion go away. Yes, you have to assemble the pattern, but this tutorial will help make that easy too and you’re on your way!

You Can Reprint PDF Patterns Anytime

Another awesome PDF feature is that you store it on your computer. Or a flash drive. Or somewhere out in the digital cloud. So they take up SO much less space. And if you need a different size, you misplace a piece, something gets ripped, or any other myriad of things that might happen, you can just reprint what you need and keep on keeping on. Unlike paper patterns, where if it tears, you have to oh so carefully try to repair it. Or if you lose a piece, you have to re-purchase it. Or if you need a different size… well, that’s a whole other possible can of worm and brings me to my next point…

PDF Patterns Typically Have Wider Size Ranges

I was always discouraged to buy paper patterns when you only got 3 or 4 sizes and they were so expensive. But with PDF patterns, you get a much wider range of sizes (for example, BSD patterns range from 6 months to 12 years for kids and 0-30 for ladies). And with Bella Sunshine and a few other designers, you can also get Mommy and Me pattern bundles! I’ll be so sad when my baby girl doesn’t want to be like her mama anymore. (Pictured is Clementine)

Personal Service

Finally, one of the BEST bonuses to PDF patterns (in my opinion) is the personalized service you can receive. Since PDF patterns are largely created by indie designers, they often have Facebook groups where you can get to know them as people, get help from them, make requests for particular designs, etc. I LOVE being able to see the person behind the business and know I’m supporting a real person and their family, and not just some faceless corporation. Melissa, the beautiful and amazing mind behind BSD, has always amazed her fans with her sweet nature and her eagerness to provide the best possible service to her customers.

There are more reasons to shop and love PDF… I could go on forever. But I’ll leave you with this. If you want to sew clothing that will fit, with minimum aggravation, and with outstanding personalized customer service, PDF is always the way to go! Why do YOU love PDF patterns?

Keeping Your Sewing Tools Fresh: It’s Important!

/0 Comments/in /by

With any job, tools are key. The better the tools, the better the results. To be your very best and do your best work, there are certain sewing tools that you should regularly replace or perform some kind of upkeep on. In this week’s blog, I’ll go over some of the more important ones and WHY it’s so important to make sure these tools are at their best!

Keeping your sewing tools fresh by Bella Sunshine Designs There are some REALLY great tips in here! And some things I never knew! I have to read it all later! Pin for later!!!

Keeping Your Tools Fresh: It’s Important!

1. Sewing Machine

Without question one of your most important sewing tools. There are several things to consider with machine upkeep. Most experts recommend getting your machine serviced once a year. I’ve got to be honest with you… I don’t. But I think you should get it done at least every few years so that they can make sure everything is running right and the timing is still good.

One of the things you can do at home on your own for your machine is to clean it out. We published a blog on that a few weeks ago, so if you aren’t sure how to clean your machine, you can find that here. Another thing you can do is to make sure you change your needles regularly. A dull machine needle can wreak havoc on a sewing project, so make sure you switch that out every couple of projects at least!

2. Cutting Tools

Another super important tool we all have is something to cut our fabric and threads. If your cutting tools are dull, it’s almost impossible to get a clean cut. If you use scissors, replacing or having them sharpened regularly is a must! With a rotary cutter, make sure you’re changing those blades out when they start acting up. This will go a LONG way towards making sure your projects come out with clean pretty edges and a professional looking finish!

3. Straight Pins

Most of us probably don’t even stop to think about the pins we use, but their upkeep is important too! They might be one of our most important sewing tools! If they get dull, you can risk snags and holes in your fabric that you would never want. The easiest thing to do where pins are concerned is to just make sure you’re replacing them regularly. Keep them fresh and sharp! And when one struggles to get through the fabric, toss it out.

4. Measuring Tapes

If you sew garments regularly, a measuring tape is a much-used sewing tool. What some of us don’t always realize is that they can and will stretch out over time, making our measurements less accurate as time goes on. There really isn’t a ‘fix’ for this problem outside of just replacing your tape. I check mine probably about 4 times a year against my cutting mat or acrylic ruler to make sure it’s still measuring an inch at an inch.

5. Cutting Mats and Acrylic Rulers

We occasionally run across patterns with measurements for square or rectangular pieces (like Isabella’s Banded Skirt in Girls and Women’s sizes). The easiest way I’ve ever found to do this is with a ruler and a rotary cutter. But it’s hard to get accurate measurements when your tools are too old! Cutting mats and acrylic rulers both lose the printing on them over time, making the numbers and other markings difficult to read. If you’re having difficulties reading your ruler or mat, it’s probably time to get a replacement to make it easier for you and ensure accurate sizing!

 

Hopefully, this list has helped you to identify some things you might have been wondering about and helped you problem solve! Do you have other upkeep tips? Please share them with us in the comments!

Staystitching: What It Is and Why It Matters

/0 Comments/in , /by

We all have sewing terms we know and love (or hate lol), and some we aren’t so familiar with. Occasionally we’ll touch on a term that might not be so well known. Today, that term is staystitching. It’s a very important part of one of our most adorable bestsellers, Josephine. Do you know what it is? How to do it? Why it’s so important to use it when a pattern calls for it? If not, today’s your lucky day to learn!

Staystitching: What It Is and Why It Matters

The Definition:

The stitching placed along a bias or curved seam to prevent the fabric of a garment from stretching while the garment is being made.

Why It’s Important:

Staystitching is a row of stitches on a single layer of fabric. Those stitches prevent a curved or angled edge from stretching during the construction process. When done correctly, these stitches won’t show on the front side. They are most commonly used with woven patterns on necklines and armscyes but are also occasionally used in knit patterns as well. Regardless of the fabric type, don’t ever skip it, because those stitches WILL affect the overall appearance of the garment if they’re overlooked.

How to Do It:

Staystitches are regular-length stitches. They are not removed like basting or ease stitches typically are. A row of staystitching should be sewn about 1/8 inch outside the seamline or about 1/4 inch from the cut edge on the 3/8″ seam allowance that Bella Sunshine patterns use. Be careful not to stitch across the seamline because the stitches will show on the garment’s right side.

Sew directionally, with the grain, to prevent distortion. Usually, this means sewing from the top to the bottom of a neckline or sleeve to protect the integrity of the curve.

The Moral of the Lesson:

If a pattern calls for staystitching, don’t skip it! It will ensure your garment goes together well, lays well, and looks just as good after multiple washes as it did when you first finished it. Plus, a well made and properly constructed garment will allow years (and sometimes even generations) of enjoyment!

Clearing the Fluff ~ How to Clean Your Machine

/1 Comment/in , /by

While self-servicing your machine might not always be the best idea, knowing how to occasionally clean your machine to clear out the fluff is a must! I know when my machine is too ‘fluffy’, it messes up everything. Doing minor regular maintenance on your machine, such as cleaning, changing needles regularly, etc, only prolong the life of your machine… and who doesn’t want that?

Clearing the Fluff ~ How to Clean Your Machine

 

My machine is a Brother SE400, so that is the machine I will be using in my pictures. Most drop-in bobbin machines will be very similar. It’s a relatively painless procedure, but very necessary for keeping your machine running smoothly, so let’s begin.

Preparation

First of all, you need to make sure a needle isn’t going to come down on you while you’re working, so you have a few options. The safest (and the one I use), is to just power down the machine. Another option is to remove the needle, but that doesn’t stop the other inner parts from moving, so powering down is your best bet. If you need more light, move your machine near a window, or move a lamp closer.

Once you have light, it’s time to open your machine up. My machine has these 2 little screws that secure the throat plate. After I unscrew those, the whole plate easily lifts out of the way. Remove the bobbin spool and then you can assess the damage. I recently cleaned my machine, so mine isn’t too bad this time around.

The Cleaning Process

At this point, you have a couple of options. My go-to is cotton swabs and occasionally isopropyl alcohol. At some point, though, I will trade up from that and into one of these. One thing I cannot stress enough, though, is to NEVER blow air into your machine. That’s bad. It could easily gum it up and make things worse.

The mini-vac method is pretty easy. Just hook it all up and suck the fluff out. The cotton swab method can be a little trickier at times but works well. If it’s super fluffy in there, that’s when I recommend the alcohol. It’ll help clear out the dust easier and it evaporates almost as fast as you can apply it, so no chance of damaging the machine. Just dip the end of the swab and go at it. When it gets too dirty, switch to a clean swab and keep going until it’s all clean!

If you aren’t using alcohol, you will use fewer swabs, but you will need to pull the machine fluff off the end of the swab constantly. When the swab is too dirty or raggedy to continue, switch to a clean one.

Now, sometimes I’ll lift out the bobbin casing and sometimes I won’t… it just depends how dirty the inside is. But make sure you know how to put it back properly before you remove it or don’t do it! Even though my machine was cleaned fairly recently, I still managed to pull a fair amount of fluff out of it.

When everything is all clean, just put it all back together, power up, and off you sew!

Finding the Right Knit~ Determining Stretch

/1 Comment/in , /by

There are so many amazing patterns for knit fabrics out there… How do you choose the right fabric for the job? When sewing with knits, one of the most important factors to consider is the stretch percentage. It can seem hard to figure out at first, but we’ll show you an easy way to figure it out so determining stretch percentage will be second nature to you. And you’ll always be able to find the right knit for the job!

Finding the Right Knit~ Determining Stretch by Bella Sunshine Designs Oooh! This will come in SO handy for my next knit sewing project! Pin for Later!

Finding the Right Knit~ Determining Stretch

Where do we start?

The first step is determining how stretchy the fabric needs to be for the garment to turn out correctly. Most patterns will list the recommended stretch percentage with the fabric requirements near the beginning of the document.

Finding the Right Knit~ Determining Stretch by Bella Sunshine Designs Oooh! This will come in SO handy for my next knit sewing project! Pin for Later!

How to Determine Stretch

Now that we know what we’re looking for, we can check our fabric. First, grab your chosen fabric and a ruler of some sort. For demonstration purposes, I’m using my cutting mat. Lay the fabric with one end at “zero”.

Next, grab the fabric at the 4-inch mark. Keep the other end securely anchored.

The rest is relatively easy. Just start stretching while keeping a firm grip on that 4-inch mark and a solid hold at the zero. The farther it stretches, the higher the percentage. It’s all pretty simple. If the farthest you can stretch it is one inch, the stretch percentage is 25%.

If it stretches by 2 inches (so to the 6-inch mark), the stretch percentage is 50%.

Once the fabric stretches out to the 7-inch mark, you’ve hit a 75% stretch.

And if you can make it all the way to 8 inches, you’ve got a fabric with 100% stretch!

Just make sure that the stretch percentage of your fabric is at or above the recommended requirements. Also, if you’re using that fabric for things like neckbands or cuffs, you want to be sure that fabric also has a good recovery. Most ideally, when you relax the fabric it returns to its original size. A poor recovery fabric will stay stretched out and will make your garment look sloppy if it’s meant to be sewn with a good recovery fabric.

Fabric Panels and What To Do With Them!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Many seamstresses nowadays belong to any number of custom knit fabric groups on Facebook. Most of those groups are now offering fabric panels to turn into garments, blankets, bags… all kinds of things! But if you’re newer to sewing or newer to these custom groups or the concept of knit panels, what do you do with them? I’ll tell you!

Fabric Panels and What To Do With Them!

As far as clothing goes, panels can be GREAT fun. You can use them as a panel in a skirt front (think of a knit Isabella’s!). You could use it as the back of a cardigan. Or, my favorite, simply the front of a tee shirt, which is what I’m going to share with you today.

The fabric I’m using is from a  Facebook group called Moon Beam Textile Company (you can find the site for purchasing here), and they run SO many amazing geeky prints! I absolutely LIVE for the geek, so it’s one of my all-time favorite groups to be in.

Making a Graphic Panel Tee

To start, get your panel and make sure your shirt front will fit within the piece. Here, I’m using the Maggie for myself and also Maggie for my daughter. You can usually fit up to a size 4t on a child-sized panel and most adult sizes on an adult panel. When you fold the panel in half, make sure your fold goes through the center of the panel design so it isn’t off-center when you cut.

Cut your front from the panel. Sometimes you can get a neckband out of the panel as well, but not always. Cut your back, sleeves, and neckband (if you didn’t get it from the panel) out of a coordinating fabric and sew as usual. When you’re done, you have a unique self-made graphic tee that is perfectly you (or your kid) in every way from fit to personality!

I LOVE using fabric panels and fun custom prints to make wardrobes that are unique to my family. They fit all of our interests and personalities. They’re fun, colorful, and uniquely “us”, which is always worthy of striving for! Do you have a favorite fabric group? Or a way to use panels that we haven’t mentioned?

Pencil Huggers- A Valentine’s Day Craft

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Today we have a fun little project to share with you! Valentine’s Day is rapidly approaching and I don’t know about you, but I think my kids get MORE than enough candy during the holidays. So this year, I’m making these fun little pencil huggers for my preschooler’s class. They’re super cute, easy and fairly inexpensive to make. And I’m going to show you how to make them too!

 

Pencil Huggers- A Valentine’s Day Craft!

To start, we need supplies.

You’ll need:

  • a shape template (that you can get free here)
  • felt (pick a traditional red or pink, or go crazy with non-traditional colors or printed felt!)
  • some fun pencils (if you aren’t as concerned about the candy, you can use suckers instead)
  • pins
  • scissors

and

  • your sewing machine

Prep Work

We’ll start by cutting out the smallest heart shape from the template. Then take that heart and trace it onto your felt. I used a sharpie pen so it would be easy to see, and after construction, you shouldn’t be able to see the markings anyway. As you can see in my photo, I managed to get 12 hearts per sheet of felt.

After they’re all traced out, I laid the sheet of felt with the traced images directly on top of a second unmarked sheet. I then placed pins through both layers at the center of each of the traced hearts. This helps the felt to not slip while you’re cutting.

We will cut the two layers at once to make sure they are perfect pairs. this helps in the final construction.

 

Now, remove the pins, but keep your pairs together. Take the traced heart piece from each pair (I recommend doing this one at a time, so as not to confuse the pairs) and draw a roughly 1/2″ line about 1/2″ from the top and bottom center of the heart. This will be where the pencils are placed. Use your scissors to clip a little slit through the one layer where you drew your lines.

Construction

Now that we have everything ready, we’ll get to the fun part. At this point, I want you to consider that your perfectly matching heart pieces are right side together with the visible part of your tracing on the outside (wrong side). I want you to flip both of those pieces so that they are right sides together with the ink to the inside. If you did this correctly, your pieces should still be perfectly matched. Pin those pairs around the perimeter.

Here’s where you have options. You can use a hand blanket stitch to finish these if you’re good at that sort of thing (I’m not). If you are going to machine sew, you can choose to match or contrast the thread with the felt color. You can choose a straight, zigzag, or decorative stitch to complete the project. I chose to use a contrasting white thread with a decorative stitch, shown above.

The easiest way to do this without the machine trying to eat at the felt is to start at the center top and sew down to the bottom point. I place my felt just past the 1/8″ mark to sew. Then repeat for the opposite side.

Now all you need to do is stick a pencil through the holes and you have finished pencil huggers! Aren’t they adorable?

The BEST thing about these pencil huggers is that you can adapt it to ANY holiday by simply switching out the shape you use! Use a bunny for Easter, a pumpkin for Halloween, a tree for Christmas… possibilities abound!

Garments with a Pop~ Adding Appliques and Reverse Appliques

/0 Comments/in , /by

I don’t know about you, but I like my projects to stand out in the crowd. There are so many ways to accomplish this. You can add trims, buttons, or other fun embellishments. You can use crazy fun colorful fabrics. Or, you can take the tutorial from this post to add unique little pops of flavor with appliques and reverse appliques. It’ll be fun! Let’s get started.

Garments With a Pop! Adding Appliques and Reverse Appliques

Before we get started, here’s what you’ll need. The cut fabric for your garment (or a pre-made garment you want to add to), a template for your applique, a coordinating fabric piece for the applique, your sewing machine, thread, and plenty of needles. For your applique, you have a few options. You can freehand your own, you can trace it from a coloring or other book, or… You can download the FREE shape template from our shop that includes all major holiday shapes! Got all that? Great!

You can use either of these methods with pretty much any fabrics, but there are minor differences. We’ll start with a traditional applique.

Note: I am using scraps for the purpose of this tutorial. When doing yours, you may do this on unsewn pattern pieces, a completed handmade item, or any store bought item you choose!

Adding a Traditional Applique

 

Use your applique template to trace the shape onto the wrong side of applique fabric and cut the shape out.

 

Take your cutout and place it where you want it on the garment. Reposition if needed. Pin well once you finalize a location.

 

If you’re using a knit applique, you can just sew a straight stitch around the perimeter of your shape (I recommend 1/8 to 1/4″ in). If you have a woven applique piece, and you want it to last, the best option is to zigzag around the outside edge of the applique to hold everything down and keep it pretty. You can always use the knit option on woven as well, but be aware your edges will fray and it probably won’t last as long.

 

Adding a Reverse Applique

This method of adding an applique is a little more difficult, but a lot more unique. I personally LOVE the way it looks! This works best if your main garment is knit, although it would also look pretty awesome on denim.

 

To start, once again trace your shape onto the wrong side of your applique fabric piece. This time, instead of cutting the shape out, cut a square or circle shape around the applique shape. If your applique fabric is woven, zigzag or serge around the edge of the piece.

 

Here’s where it gets a little trickier. You want to place and pin your applique like before, but this time you’re going to pin it a little differently. Place your garment/main fabric right side down and then place the applique on top of that, also right side down. This places the applique on the INSIDE of the garment.

 

Adding Appliques and Reverse Appliques – Bella Sunshine Designs Ooh! I’ve always wanted to know how to do this! And it looks so EASY with this tutorial! I can’t wait to try it!!! Pin for later!

 

Now, stitch the applique piece in place following the lines you drew on the wrong side.

 

Once that’s done, flip your garment to the right side and CAREFULLY cut away the main fabric from inside the stitching. Be very careful to not cut the applique fabric!

 

What you end up with is like a window to the back piece, and it looks SO cool! If you’re using knit, you’re done! If you’re using a woven for the main piece, you might consider going back around the perimeter with a zigzag. Or, you can leave it to fray for a cool distressed look.

 

That’s it! Now you can add a ton of character to all of your clothes! Do you have any other fun tutorials you’d like to see? Please let us know in the comments! And come join us in our Facebook group to share you Bella Sunshine makes!
