Beginner Sewing – How to sew a Door Snake or Draft Excluder

Join me, Susan from Measure Twice Cut Once, as I take you through how to sew a Door Snake.

Door snakes are a wonderfull way to cut down on your bills, they keep warm air in a heated house and keep cool air from escaping in an air conditioned house. Plus they are a great way to use up the fabric scraps you end up accumulating during sewing.

We will be learning how to sew straight lines turn a corner, sew and end closed and a useful way to use up fabric scraps. It’s a nice way to start building up your skills and potentially cut down your bills all at once.

For experienced sewers they are a great way to use up leftover scraps of fabrics and they make great presents for young and old.

The pattern is available from the Measure Twice Cut Once website https://www.measuretwicecutonce.com.a…

Cutting Out The November Subscription Sewing Box from The Lingerie Society . Slow TV style sewing

Join me as I decide what to make and cut out from the NovemberSubscription Sewing Box from The Lingerie Society from Pitt Trading.

Done in a slow TV style it is without sound, but with captions to explain what I’m doing, hints and tips along the way.

I had a slight problem when filming this one and filmed it the wrong way round. I’ve done my best to adjust it and make it watchable but sometimes some of the cutting isn’t on the screen. Normally I’d re do the video but I can’t re cut out a box! So I’ve done my best with the editing and hopefully it gives you the right ideas if nothing else? I’ll be back soon with all the finished pieces from the box all sewn up.

I hope you enjoy it, if you do please leave me a comment so I can do more of them in the future. As always if you like the content please hit the subscribe button so I know to keep making more videos for you.
