any suggestions??? I just got a machine for Christmas and wanna get started ASAP! Patterns and beginner stuff I might need and/or would be easy to make would be awesome!
Come see me, and we'll make cloth napkins! (I have a pretty adorable custruction crew in my house for the nest 2 weeks, if you need eye candy while you learn to sew )

No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
I can think of a ton.. cloth napkins, unpaper towels (I still haven't gotten around to sewing mine- oops!), wet bags, pillowcase dresses, pillows (2 squares of some gorgeous fabric= fun throw pillows, no pattern necessary!).
I'm going to be trying my hand at some doll clothes here shortly- we got DD a small waldorf doll for christmas, and I think she needs some fun clothes. Not like DD will be able to change them or anything for awhile, but Mommy can play!
I agree with Jenn on this one. Cloth napkins are the way to go for a beginner. You can make some turned and topstitched, and others with a rolled hem. Both are very important skills, and the outcome is very usable.
