5 Tips for More Effective Sewing ✂️✨ Featuring the Breckenridge Henley

[@suewilbur504]

Great tips, Whitney! Batch cutting is the only way to go. ✂️

[@LoveNotions]

She's got all the best advice! ❤️ Speaking of batch cutting, off to cut a stack myself ! 😊~J

Past month my time has been taken up with medical issues. Hardly any time for sewing or anything else. So next week is mainly going to be sewing time. I need it and I deserve it! I like to batch cut a few things because I have to move things from under my sewing table and move my sewing table out from wall and turn it around to get around it better. Love the top and the tips.

Awe. Take care of yourself.❤

[@LoveNotions]

So glad you're feeling well enough to sew again! 😄 Hope you can get through your "to-do" list! Happy sewing! ~J

[@ZeldaSews]

Making sewing a priority is definitely a priority. Okay I have to go and sew now!😅😅😅

[@LoveNotions]

Yes!! You and me both! 🤣🙌🙌 ~J

Great advice. Need to get into batch cutting : ) . Thanks for this video. The Breckenridge Henley is so cute.

[@LoveNotions]

It’s definitely a game changer! So glad you enjoyed the video! Whitney really knows her stuff! ❤️~J

Whitney, thanks for these great tips.

[@LoveNotions]

So glad they were helpful! Whitney is amazing! ❤️ ~J

[@ZeldaSews]

I feel really good when I can get some sewing time in because it is quiet time in my head.😅

[@LoveNotions]

Gotta get that quiet when we can! 🤣❤️ ~J

[@lynnshepard7485]

Ok, you’ve convinced me to buy this pattern, Whitney, with your lovely version! I’ve been avoiding it for some reason. It’s been so 🥶 here in SC, and I’m sadly lacking in long-sleeved comfy shirts that look classy. 😘

[@LoveNotions]

I hope it makes you the coziest and classiest! 🥰😊 ~J

[@juanitariverarepollet5977]

Very pretty fabric choice. Recently I have been taking one day to cut out a few projects then sewing on other days. As you mentioned it does seem to me that I am completing more sewing projects that way with more focus. Thank you for sharing!

[@LoveNotions]

I love that strategy! Glad it works well for you, too! ~J

[@karendiesner5008]

Thanks Whitney! You always inspire me 😊

[@LoveNotions]

She is the best! ❤️ Glad she inspired you! ~J

[@donnaschindlbeck7457]

Great ideas Whitney! The Breckenridge and LaBella Donna are always pallet cleaners for me. Such versatile patterns, come to think of it all Love Notions patterns are versatile! 😊

[@LoveNotions]

So glad you enjoy working with them! 😄 They are both fab, quick sews! 😊 Thanks for stopping by! ~J

[@makeitjoyful]

Great tips Whitney!

[@LoveNotions]

So glad they were helpful, she did a fab job! ❤️ ~J

[@ZzoeyZa]

Great tips thanks

[@LoveNotions]

So glad you found them helpful! 😄 ~J

[@suek7086]

I really like this pattern. I need to cut out another one.

[@LoveNotions]

You can't go wrong with that pattern! 😊 Happy sewing!! ~J

[@Escape10mom]

Love to batch cut! It seems to make the project go faster. Cutting out is also my least favorite part of sewing.

[@LoveNotions]

It definitely helps keep things moving along! 😊 ~J

[@suek7086]

I dislike cutting out but not as much as taping together patterns. Both cause me to procrastinate. Ugh!

[@ninadukette3340]

That's for sure

[@LoveNotions]

Highly recommend projector sewing then! We have a few blog posts about it (including "How to Make It Work in the Space You've Got!" for all the creative set ups folks have come up with for almost any space!) You can also order large format prints from several different plotter printers for $2-3/page. That definitely saves on the printing and assembly! That was my go-to before getting a projector. 😊 But we're well aware that's not an option for everyone. ❤️ ~J

[@rachelleginter8234]

Cutting is my least favorite too so i cut multiple projects at a time also.

[@LoveNotions]

Batch cutting is a game changer! 🤩 ~J

[@bernadettepierre7935]

Can the Henley be done in woven? I'm not used to sewing with knits....not a fan of knits either

[@LoveNotions]

Breckenridge is drafted for knits, with negative ease, so it would not be suitable for wovens. We do have quite a few fab woven patterns, though! 😊 ~J
