 Also on the first day we did straight stitches with different widths there are on the sewing machine in class.

This one is of different Zigzag stitches can be done. on the lowest number you can hardly see the zigzag and as we changed the number of width stitch the zigzag got more noticeable.

This is a satin weave. This weave is used for fabrics that need to be a little stronger like Denim.
The first day of sewing class we did a weaving project with some different colored paper to see what fibers looked like in fabric. This weave is called a plain weave, used on many types of fabric.
