When I was first learning to sew I started on relatively simple projects, like pillows and hand puppets. I remember a classmate of mine accidentally sewed his pillow to his jeans. Sewing isn't easy, but it doesn't have to be hard! Here are a few simple tutorials to get you started.
If you are more interested in watching me amusingly struggle through projects or a want to see a video tutorial instead of reading one, come check out my YouTube Channel! SunBlade Cosplay's "What the Heck?!" is linked in the below image.
