LEARN TO SEW: PART 1- New Series begins
Sewing IS fun and the secret is easy – take it one step at a time.

Many readers have written to us and asked us to include sewing tips and articles for the beginner, so taking this on board the team at Sew Inspirational has decided to start from the beginning, and teach someone new to sew along the way.

TIP - The initial requirements for sewing success are desire, enthusiasm, vision, creativity and attention to detail.

KAFTAN KRAZY
The humble kaftan has resurfaced and hit the fashion scene with strength. This classic style is loose fitting, very forgiving and yet universally flattering with its bohemian, gypsy style. Made for day or evening, pool or party, the kaftan has evolved from the simple Indian cottons of the ‘70’s to the new and very desirable chiffons, silks and satins in exotic prints and fabulous colours.

The perfect canvas for all your creativity, the kaftan lends itself to embellishment, from subtle beading to elaborate embroidery, fabric painting or dying through to tucking and insertions ……you’ll want to make several this season.
