New to sewing and unsure what you need to stock your sewing space with? Well, keep reading for a list of must-have sewing supplies that will get you going on your sewing journey. Every sew-er has their specific preferences when it comes to sewing necessities, but here are a few of our favorite sewing supplies!
Glass Head Pins
Keep two
cushions full of pins, so if you have one project all pinned up, you can work
on other projects too and still have plenty of pins to use.
Wonder Clips
Having plenty
of Wonder Clips around to use is great in place of pins on bulkier or tricky
fabrics.
Fabric Scissors
Find what
you prefer and ONLY use them for fabric. This will help them stay sharper
longer!
Rotary Cutter and Mat
Yes,
if you want to take up sewing as a hobby, then you’ll probably want to have
both fabric scissors AND a rotary cutter. Use the rotary cutter and mat for
cutting larger amounts of fabric. This method will save time and increase
accuracy.
Steam Iron
Ironing fabric
and pressing seams makes a huge difference in the look of the final product
when you’re done working on a project. Because of this, it’s always a good idea
to have a decent steam iron in your sewing space.
Clover Hot Hemmer
We use
this thing almost every time we sew. It makes folding and pressing seam
allowances so much easier and definitely more accurate. We can’t live without
it.
Variety of Thread
If you’re
just starting out, you may only want to buy thread as you need it. But, when
you sew more regularly, you’ll probably want to have a stash of thread on hand
to use for different projects. Start with all purpose machine thread, then add
quilting, embroidery and serger thread as needed.
Seam Ripper
We love this
particular seam ripper because it does double duty. First you use the seam
ripper part (hidden under the cap in the photo) to undo the stitches, then you
use the rubber-like end to grab and remove the threads.

Zirkel Magnetic Pin Holder
This magnetic pin holder repels and seperates items to the edge in a fanned out
pattern placing them in a ready to pick up position! Talk about saving time and
no more pricks to the finger tips!
