Cutting Out Shapes

You can do some very interesting and stylish things just by pinching a bit of fabric with your scissors and cutting out designs.

Tips:

• For precision and planning, drawing on fabric with chalk or sharpies can be useful. 
• Just be careful not to cut through more than one layer of fabric unless you intend to. 
• The sharper the scissors the easier your life will be (just be sure not to accidentally cut yourself.)
• The stretchier the fabric, the more the design will droop.
• Stretching the fabric out will give the design cleaner edges.
• Do some sketches and be creative!
