We asked our readers recently how they like to find their projects and one of the top reasons sewists pick their next DIY sewing projects is by how long these projects take. Time is money and more often than not, our sewists are busy little bees who need to find time to sew during a busy schedule. That means they want to find quick sewing projects that they complete in shorter amounts of time. This is why we have compiled this long list of easy sewing projects and quick projects for beginning sewists into one place! 200+ Sewing Projects for Beginners (by the Minute) has projects you can complete in five minutes and projects you can finish in a day. All you need to do is figure out how much time you want to spend on your next project then scroll down to find your idea!
