Our tutorials cover practical topics such as printing patterns, choosing fabrics, planning motif placement and working through beginner pet sewing projects.

CHOOSE FABRIC, COLOR & DETAILS

Small changes in fabric, color and detail can create very different looks from the same basic project. Try pairing one feature print with a coordinating solid or small-scale fabric, or use contrasting colors to create a more playful result.

If you are planning matching accessories, focus on shared colors and materials rather than using the exact same print on every piece.
