We asked our readers recently how they like to find their projects and one of the top reasons sewists pick their next DIY sewing projects is by how long these projects take. Time is money and more often than not, our sewists are busy little bees who need to find time to sew during a busy schedule. That means they want to find quick sewing projects that they complete in shorter amounts of time. This is why we have compiled this long list of easy sewing projects and quick projects for beginning sewists into one place! 200+ Sewing Projects for Beginners (by the Minute) has projects you can complete in five minutes and projects you can finish in a day. All you need to do is figure out how much time you want to spend on your next project then scroll down to find your idea! The problem with searching without a plan is that sometimes you can end up spending ALL of that time combing through sewing project ideas instead of actually sewing. Not with this page! So, no matter how much time you have saved up for your next sewing endeavor, we have the sewing project ideas for you.

Overseas buyers welcome! Please check our eBay Store to see all of the sewing patterns and other items available this week. We don't cross-post every item we sell also on eBay UK but we will be happy to internationally ship any pattern that we sell! USPS has recently raised its domestic and overseas mail shipping rates again, and significantly – My Overseas package mailing cost for a pattern to Europe just increased by about an additional $4 as of January 18, 2016. I’m not happy about this either, but I have discounted combined shipping for multiple purchases! Also for some reason using online postage it costs me almost as much to mail to Canada as anywhere else in the world! ~ ~ ~ Rules of the Road: · We’ve been buying and selling online for over fifteen years but this is a hobby, we are not professionals. If there is a problem – LET US KNOW ASAP and we will try to resolve the situation to everyone’s satisfaction. · We try to take multiple detail photos of items to improve the buyer’s appraisal of the item and describe items to the best of our ability. Email us if you have any questions before you bid! · Yes, we will happily do combined shipping of multiple purchased items for significant savings - upon request. eBay should automatically calculate a combined shipping discount, but contact us if it doesn’t · In order to reduce as much as possible the shipping costs to the buyer, our items are normally shipped out for US buyers via online eBay/USPS First Class Mail and without insurance, unless the buyer requests otherwise. International buyers can track shipment via their Customs online tracking number, but remember a delay in customs of up to a FULL MONTH is possible - and entirely and completely beyond my control! · Due to eBay's rules, we are forbidden from automatically accepting any payment other than PayPal. Contact us if you would like to make other arrangements or have any questions about this policy. · Returns cheerfully accepted within two weeks of receipt only if we have made a serious mistake with the description (pattern noted as being uncut was actually cut - or instructions missing). Refund amount to only include the original purchase + shipping cost, not return postage. · Buyer’s remorse is not an acceptable reason to request a refund! Send me a separate email via Contact Seller if you require expedited shipping!
