I recently bought a sewing machine and will be taking classes on how to use it. I learned how to use a sewing machine in junior high but I'm pretty sure I need a refresher I'm looking for ideas of useful and thrifty things to have around the house, and maybe if I really get the hang of it try to sell. (side note: I cloth diaper and use mama cloth.)
I think I want to start by making some family cloth and some cloth napkins. We go through paper towels like nobody's business, so maybe some unpaper towels. Ultimately I would also really like to learn how to make minky mama cloth because I need some more!
What else do you like to sew? Think beginner to intermediate please

I'm in the middle of making a bunch of mama cloth for PP right now. I've also made unpaper towels - one set for our house and another as a bridal shower gift for a friend.
I like to upcycle my clothes too. I recently took an old pair of maternity jeans from my first pregnancy and made them into skinny jeans.
I've also made throw pillows for the couch and curtains for some rooms.

Maybe some blanket, burp cloths, bibs, plush toys, as time allows!
