      As a sewing instructor I have often been asked what are some of the easiest items a person can learn to sew, so here are my top ten easiest projects.

2. Pillow Cover - This would be a new cover doe a decorative pillow and very easy to make.
 
3. Pajama Bottoms - Most pajama bottom patterns are easy to read for a beginner sewer and there is a lot of forgiveness in this item.
 
4. Simple Tote Bag - There are plenty of free and easy patterns out there for this easy project.
 
5. Pot Holder - this project is easy and can often be made with little material or scraps.
 
6. Place Mat - Some of these can be very fancy but for the most part this is beginner sewing project.
 
7. Baby Receiving Blanket - there are a number of ways to make these but if you are looking for an easy sewing project with your new serger, nothing could be easer.
 
8. Jelly-Roll Race Quilt - If you are looking to make a very simple quilt you should give this a try. There are a lot of tutorials on youtube for this one, they are easy and lots of fun.
 
9. Bowl Cozy - These are a great gift, use very little fabric and are a breeze to make.
