Hello friends!<\/p>\n

Here’s my question today: Have you ever taught someone to sew?<\/p>\n

\"Have<\/a><\/p>\n

And if you have, what project did you teach?<\/p>\n

I like to teach our free Lazy Days Skirt<\/a> as a very first project, especially for girls who want something they can use right away. For adults, I usually start with a simple tote bag or a pillowcase. Or, if we’re feeling a little more ambitious, our women’s Everyday Skirt<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m curious to read your answers. Have a great weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
