So Sew Easy shares the top 5 mistakes to avoid when cutting fabric.
Many aspiring sewers become afraid or unmotivated because the project didn’t turn out the way they wanted. A big pile of unfinished garments is a dead give away!

The reason for this doomed journey starts at the fabric store but is often made worse by how we end up cutting the fabric.

I love fabric and can’t tell you how nervous I get when it comes time to cut it!!! YOU are correct a lot of shop/sites don’t tell you that fabrics (washables) should be washed & ironed before cutting patterns out to avoid nasty shrinkage of your project. My mom and grandmother always said to wash the fabric first!!! now for me to get over the fear of cutting the fabric

Yes!! I have a JoAnn store 5 miles away and I can spend hours there. The best part of the shopping experience are the coupons and the online shopping.
