You’re always on the lookout for the latest, most innovative projects you can whip up right at your own sewing machine. Finding the time, let alone the inspiration, is often hard to come by. But don’t fret, The Sewing Republic sponsored by BERNINA boasts everything the sewing enthusiast seeks. Whether you’re looking to spice up your closet with a trendy Scarf Dress, mix fun and function with the Juice Pouch, or sew something for your little one, like the Toddler Scarf, The Sewing Republic promises to deliver.
This one-stop-shop sewing resource offers everything you need to get behind your first machine, use a buttonholer, or take your sewing to the next level with intermediate techniques. In depth tutorial videos walk you through sewing a zipper and explain the uses (and beauty of) a bias binding. Need to know the difference between chiffon and charmeause? They can help you with that too. And for the real go-getter, sign up for classes at your local BERNINA dealer. What more could you need?
The Sewing Republic is a really great resource, so go check ‘em out at sewingrepublic.com.
