So I've recently become addicted to sewing. I've made some baby pants and a few things like that. I've never sewn before, and don't have anyone to teach me how. Do you have any favorite sites or tips to get a newbie started?

Thanks!

the Easy Fit Pants pattern is worth every penny! I learned to sew/taught myself, with that pattern and it is fool proof. My family and friends can't believe that they look so good!

Other good patterns on that website:

Faith Top Pattern for toddlers/girls

Pinafore dress pattern

And any patterns by CarlaC. You download the patterns and you are immediately learning and sewing!

HTH - welcome to sewing!

I turned to sewingmamas.com when I started sewing a couple of years back. They've got some great free patterns and tutorials!
