If you\u2019re new to sewing and you want to mend your clothes and do some simple alterations or projects, what sewing tools do you need? I mean what do you REALLY need? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, it isn’t much and you don\u2019t need a sewing machine. Not yet. If you discover that you like sewing and want to sew bigger projects then you should buy one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But for mending or simple projects you actually only need 6 things which I’ll go through here in detail. The main thing is you really don\u2019t want cheaply made tools. They will make your sewing task frustrating and take twice as long. However, this doesn\u2019t mean you need expensive tools either, just well-made tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So If you want to shorten a dress, mend a small hole, or secure a button here are the sewing tools you\u2019ll need and some additional items you may want to have in your sewing kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
