10+ Beginner Sewing Projects Clothes (Learn To Sew)

1. Hoodie:

Everyone needs a go-to sweatshirt, but most people can’t justify spending the money on one. Luckily, this free pattern from Designer Stitch is easy enough even for beginners.

If you’re just starting your sewing journey, these beginner sewing projects clothes will be perfect. It’s simple and classic – what more could you want?

2. Stretchy Wrap Dress:

This dress is comfy and easy to make which makes it a great starter project if you are new to making clothing.

Most of the steps are repetitive so it does get easier towards the end after some practice when making dresses.

I’ve given tips when needed but feel free to leave comments if you have questions or need help.

3. Faux-Leather Tote Bag:

This tote bag is very stylish and you can make it in any color combination that you desire since – it’s fully customizable!

The step-by-step tutorial features photos for every stage of the process which makes this a great beginner sewing projects clothes.

4. Baby Onesie:

We’re not having kids any time soon but even if we did, I’d probably still go running to buy onesies at the store.

They are pretty much essential when you have a baby because they are so easy to put on/take off your little one, keeping them warm all day long.

This would be perfect as our new substitute to save some money and make it ourselves.

5. Women’s Basic Slippers:

Making your slippers is the perfect beginner sewing projects clothes.

There’s no need to be afraid of making them because they’re not technically clothing, but rather a footwear product meant to go on your feet, right? Right!

These basic slippers are easy and you can use any material that you want or have at home already (shh – our secret).

6. Simple Pleated Skirt:

This skirt is great for hot days when you don’t feel like wearing shorts but still want to look casual and cool around the house.

The pleats also add some dimension to this piece so I think it makes a nice change from other skirts we own already.

7. Women’s Pleated Blouse:

This blouse is a perfect beginner sewing projects clothes.

It’s easy to make without too much trouble and the result is fabulous!

You can use it as your go-to summer shirt for barbecues, picnics, and other fun summer activities.

It adds some style to our usual casual wear and I like that you can dress it up or down effortlessly depending on what shoes/accessories you want to pair with it.

8. Denim Jacket:

This jacket features welt pockets which give it a little extra style and make it look more difficult than it is – anyone can sew this bad boy together!

This brings me to my next point – the welt pocket was one of the first things I’ve ever seen and it can be a little intimidating at first, but you’ll get through it just fine if you use my tips.

9. Lace Trim T-shirt:

These beginner sewing projects clothes are super easy to make and look great with your favorite pair of jeans, shorts, or even leggings!    

I love that this shirt would instantly add some interest to your usual look without making too much of an effort.

Pair it with a cute necklace and you’re good to go!

10. Women’s Asymmetrical T-Shirt:

There are so many things I like about this top – it’s asymmetrical which gives it a fancy touch, it has cut-out shoulders, and is easy enough to make even for beginners.

It uses very basic stitches so there will be no trouble getting started on this one!

Conclusion:

Sewing clothes is a great way to open up the door to new fashion possibilities.  With these beginner sewing projects clothes, you can make some cool stuff for yourself and your friends!

You also need to know that there are many different types of beginners sewing projects clothes.

Of course, this list is only the beginning – some people will love making t-shirts while others would rather sew full dresses.
