Materials Needed Before you start sewing, let’s gather the necessary materials: Main fabric : Choose a fabric that you love—around 1 yard will suffice. Accent fabric : This contrasting fabric will be perfect for the trim (approximately 1/3 yard). Thread : Ensure your thread matches the color of your main fabric for a cohesive look. Sewing machine : If you don’t have a machine, hand-sewing works perfectly too! Scissors : Sharp scissors will make cutting easier. Measuring tape : Accurate measurements are key to a successful project. Pins : These will hold your pieces together while you sew.
