Tock, I just got a sewing machine recently just for hemming the pants of my gi pants for jiu-jitsu (I'm big but short so they are all too long and I got tired of paying for tailors to do it). Your channel was really helpful as a full beginner to sewing. And now I'm going to be doing more sewing since I have found even doing hems enjoyable. This pillow will probably be my first actual project. What are some other good projects for someone new to sewing? Things that area a little more challenging and help you develop and improve other key sewing skills? Thank you for your content.
