Top 10 Sewing Tutorials

Top 10 Free Sewing Tutorials of 2015 by www.aspoonfulofsugardesigns.com

As 2015 draws to a close, it is a great opportunity to reflect on our little corner of the internet. We are constantly blown away by the support and encouragement we receive from people around the world. Our lovely readers are the nicest people – you inspire us to keep creating and sharing our ideas and projects. Thanks for following along on our sewing, craft, and baking adventures over the past 8 years. We love the supportive community here, and on instagram and facebook. Unfortunately we can no longer answer every comment we receive, but we do read every one and they mean the world to us!

2015 was a huge year for us – I changed jobs and returned to full time work for the first time in more than 20 years. Sarah started her university course and also changed her part time job. I finished my first book – A Spoonful of Sugar: Sew 20 Simple Projects to Sweeten Your Surroundings Zakka Style (available for pre-order from Amazon and Book Depository). My book is due out in April and I will share more about it soon. Even though 2015 was a really busy year for us, we still managed to share 90+ posts here on A Spoonful of Sugar. We love to inspire others to get creative at home, and our free sewing tutorials are amongst our most popular posts. Here is a round-up of our top 10 sewing tutorials for 2015. Hope you find something here to inspire you!

If you’ve ever wanted to add eyelets or grommets t If you’ve ever wanted to add eyelets or grommets to your sewing projects, here’s a quick look at how I install them using my DK93 snap press.
