There's no question—the simplest fabric for beginner sewers is a plain-weave cotton, like the solid fabrics quilters use. It allows you to concentrate on developing basic sewing skills without the need for fabric-wrangling tricks. That said, a confident beginner can handle other fabrics, too, such as T-shirt jersey or denim. If cosplay is your interest, you may even jump into something thick or shiny, but it's a good idea to consult with other sewists online or in person to get a few tips.
Every SEDNEE FHSM-520 sewing machine comes with a complete set of essential sewing accessories—so you’ll have everything you need to start right away. The kit includes bobbins, needles, multiple types of presser feet, scissors, a measuring tape, a needle threader, and more—over 60 pieces in total. There's no need to purchase additional tools separately.
One of the first skills you’ll need when learning how to sew is actually reading. When you've chosen a beginner sewing machine, be sure to read the manual carefully. When you've selected a pattern, read through all of the instructions. If the information seems overwhelming, simply take it one step at a time and start with the overview, which will help you understand the patternmaker's instructional style.
Sewing is a hobby that’s both fun and useful. You can repair damaged clothing, design new fashions, or craft fun costumes. But before you embark on all your pent-up projects and unleash your imagination, you’ll need to familiarize yourself with some fundamentals.
Follow the threading guide printed on your machine or in the manual. Make sure the presser foot is up, guide the thread through each marked point, and finish by threading the needle from front to back.
Check that the machine is threaded correctly, the tension is not too tight, and you’re using the right type of needle for your fabric. Also, make sure the thread is good quality and not old or brittle.
Place the thread spool on the spool pin, pass the thread through the bobbin winder guide, and wrap it around the bobbin a few times. Push the bobbin winder to the right and press the foot pedal or use the auto-winding function.
After every few projects, remove lint and dust from the bobbin area and feed dogs using a small brush. Oil the machine if recommended in your manual.
Check your threading, reinsert the bobbin correctly, and adjust the thread tension. The higher the tension number, the tighter the upper thread will be. Also, make sure you’re using the right needle and stitch settings for your fabric.
Yes. Each machine includes essential accessories such as presser feet, bobbins, needles, a thread kit, and a foot pedal, so you can start sewing right away.
