My current sewing machine is a Baby Lock BRILLIANT. If you're looking to buy a good entry level machine, I love many machines in this series called JOY, ZEAL, and JUBILANT. You can purchase and read some reviews on this site (they are out of stock on some of them due to the pandemic and everyone sewing masks, but hopefully they will have more soon!:

i am a new 71 year old retired sewer. You explain things so clearly and give good suggestions. I have made your zipper pouches (100 of them, for gifts,etc). Can,t wait to try tote bags. Love you and
please keep up the wonderful tutorials.
Awesome. Wow, 100 zipper pouches! Impressive! I'm so glad you're still sewing. Have fun with you're adventures and thanks for sharing! - Dana
my boyfriend got me a sewing machine for my birthday yesterday and I was looking to make pillow covers, this is great, thanks for the tutorial.
Have fun! You can learn so much on line today!
That's what I'm doing now.
Dana, I love how you go straight to showing us the How to's. The information given is clear, and precise while still making it fun. Also your set is visually appealing, as well as all of the crafts you make which is a definite plus! ... Great job lady! Keep them coming :]
I randomly found your channel trying to make pillow covers and watched a few more of your videos. I like the way you explain everything in simple terms and make everything seem easy, and not so scary. I'm a pretty beginner level sewer so this is perfect for me. Thanks!!! I will keep watching more of your videos for ideas and projects.
I just got my first sewing machine and I spent hours looking for the best UA-cam channels that could help me learn. Overall, yours has hands down been my favorite! A slip cover for a throw pillow was my first project and it looks so cute in my daughter's room! I could not have asked for a better tutorial. Not only are you a great teacher, but the clean editing and clear visuals make a huge difference. Thank you so much for making these!
Thank you for your tutorials!!! I'm new to sewing! I bought a mini sew & sew machine and I loved it I bought a full size machine just today! And this was my first project on my new machine! Didn't take me more than about 30-40 minutes! (I'm very new to sewing!) loved the out come!!
Thank you for this video. I am a visual learner and I learned how to make a pillow sham watching your detailed instructions once. I made some amazing pillows for my family room. Thank you for sharing. Much love.
I am a beginner, but just made pillow cases for my cushions that looks as if they where bought from the shop made by a professional. Thank you Dana for sharing your skill.
Followed your video today and made a slipcover for my dog's favorite 18" x 18" pillow. It was quite easy and came out well considering I have not sewn in a few years. You gave a great tutorial. Thank you!
Dana, I really like the way you explain how to do it, because you go straight to show us fast , and clear information , great job girl thanks
I am just learning to sew and you make me excited about it. Never stop doing what you are doing right now. such an inspiration... you make it so easy.
Thanks so much for this, Dana. I just made my "first" sewing project in many, many years, and I chose this pillow sham. I really like your idea of having the sham snug against the pillow form, so I used your format for measuring my fabric. I picked up 2 beautiful 20"x20" pillows at Costco (Northern California) for only $16.49, much cheaper than pillow forms at the craft store. The covers turned out great, and now I have washable/changeable pillow shams for the dogs to lay on when chillaxing with us while watching TV!
I didn't realize how easy that is!! I just started sewing and I'm very grateful for your content. I can't wait to see more videos to learn. Thank you very much!!!
I made a cushion for my cat using your amazingly simple video. Thank you for clear instructions. I'm super pleased with the result!
This June 2020 and I am here. Your teaching is very easy to understand. Thank you for not dragging your lesson out.❤
Haha. Sure! Thanks for watching :) Dana
I needed simple instructions on how to close the beautiful pillows I created.
You gave clear & precise instructions.
I MUCH appreciate it! THANK YOU.
Love your tutorials, I've learnt a lot from your web tutorials it's nice to actually watch you do them. Keep them coming.
Just done my first cushion cover based on this video..much love and thanks! A new self learner here 😉
VERY EASY.. did the slip cover style for 2 18" pillows. Turned out perfect! Thank you!!!! One of my favorite channels on youtube!
Thank you. I'm a beginner and with this video's help I was able to make my son some cute pillows for his bed!
I can not explain how much I loved this. You explained every step perfectly and I understood it. Now all I want to do is make pillows, thank you veery much!!
Absolutely love your personality and joy! Your tutorials are easy and fun to follow along to. Thank you for making them!
1 am only 10 and I have my own sewing machine and when I saw your vid I headed straight to my sewing machine and made the pillow sham
I am only 62, and am about to do run out and get fabric to update my living room sofa pillows.
l have disable baby can you please do farwer can I have. a juki. masine
Love that!
Not really that impressive :-:. I was 10 and a boy doing this by hand and then got a sewing machine when my grandma saw my interest in sewing...
@@senpaininj1736 It takes a really special kind of human being to compare their accomplishments to a 10 year old and try to knock theirs out...a real kind of special person -_-
Made a small pillow sham cover for my niece.. Black cotton appliqued with huge yellow moon and the most adorable little owl in front of it. The sham cover worked perfectly. My fabric allotment made the fit a bit snug for getting the pillow into it but it LOOKS GREAT!!! Thank you for your help!!
So glad I found this video! I wanted to make a couple removable pillow covers but was not sure how to do it with Velcro or zippers since my sewing skills are limited. This pocket idea is perfect and I'm sure even I can do it!!
Made a pillow for the gf and my first 1 year anniversary, I already knew how to make a pillow but wanted a refresher course. Thanks much!
You just made my life a whole lot easier. I love the way you teach in a very simple but fun way for people like me beginners...YAY
Thank you for this! I can usually do almost anything, but sewing has always stressed me out, so my sewing machine has been sitting in my closet for years. Your video shows how easy pillows are, however, so I'm looking forward to making some pillows!
This is so well done! Thank you.... I can even sew a pillow now... and I'm sewing challenged!
You're one of the best instructors on youtube!
Cupcake Cottage Studio Thank you so much! :) - Dana

I came here to say the same same thing 🥰🧚🏽♀️
Your awesome and beautiful!! Very well explained. Thank you so much! 🥰
Good production quality--hats off to your camera operator. director, producer, boom operator, key grip, etc. You are adorable. Thanks for keeping on task, moving along, and keeping the project interesting.
So easy to follow along! Thanks for breaking down a project that I'm sure would sound simple to most. Love your enthusiasm :)
This was a fantastic how-to video. I am so pleased with how my pillow turned out. I did use a velvet fabric for my piping which was a bit harder to work with than a regular cotton might have been. My zipper foot was also slightly different than what is shown in this video so I had to really manuever the fabric to get a tight stitch against the piping. Overall, very helpful video and very thrilled with my new skill!
Wow, I am so thankful that I found your tutorials! After watching this video I headed straight for my sewing machine to make that pillow sham - It really was SO easy!
+Felishia Hoffecker Awesome! That makes me so happy to hear! :) - Dana

I love your easy to follow tutorials. I am a beginner when it comes to sewing. just received my sewing machine 5 days ago and i already made masks and pillow cases following your tutorial. I cant wait to try this one since we have so many of these pillows that needs cases.

I have a lot of pillows that are worn out, washed and rewashed... and I will now make new covers for them. Thanks for the great video.
I have watched every single one of your videos in the past week and love them. I can't wait for more!

This was great! Step-by-step, easy to understand-exactly what I needed. I made my very first pillow sham with the help of your video! It is a Christmas one, but I am going to make a variety of covers, so my daughter can switch them out with the seasons or holidays.
Great idea! I'm glad the video was helpful. :)
Your videos are so perfect and full of life! I'm so thankful!
I love all your diy videos. i use your video as guide to create pillowcase and a fitted crib sheet for my baby. I was so proud to see the result of my creation. Planning to create more pillow case for a good cause although my sewing machine got broken coz it was from china. huhuhu. anyhow I love all your creations and I'm a super fan. I feel so happy watching your videos. i love you.. 👍👍👍👍

You & your instructions are so easy to follow! Thank you!!
I don't know how you even talk and sew at the same time, and sew so quickly!! I can't sew, so it would take my full concentration. This is inspiring - looks simple enough. BTW, I also love how fast you're talking - shortens the video length for a quick tutorial. ;) Thank you!
This is the best tutorial. Straight to the point, and very well explained...I love you and because of you I started loving sewing more
awww that makes me so happy to hear! Thank you! :) Dana

Thanks so much for this!! I’m new and you cover all the bases for us newbies 👌🏽👍🏼
This helped me a lot!! I wanted to make sham but didn't know how but you taught me . So, Thanks Dana!
You are a great teacher! I have been looking for someone to teach me step by step and you go at just the right pace. I am working my way through your' Learn to sew---Start Here' playlist and am so excited to put the fabric I was given to use! You rock :)

you did such a good job. right to the point without telling me I needed fabric. dahhh. nice job really!
You just saved me loads of money and stress. I'm redoing my pillows on my bed and have left over fabric. I can't afford $34+ for a pillow I can make exactly like it or better. Thank you so much and you're completely awesome!
Oh good! Glad it helped :)

I love your videos, super easy to understand with out all the extra long conversation
I love her!!!!! Others have made something so simple look so difficult. She just gave me all the confidence in the world to make and sell pillows 😍😍😍😍
Awwww thank you! That makes me so happy to hear! :) Thanks for watching. Have fun sewing pillows! Dana
Yay
You made this so simple!! Thank you for your wonderful instructions ❤️❤️
thank you for your tutorial. After watching it, I make 2 pillows and it looks great!
When I watch other people trying to teach step by step, I find it a bit difficult to really understand because they are just going all over the place. I love watching your channels because you make it simple and so much easier to understand what to do.
I am a beginning beginner LOL I am interested in sewing but have a hard time with tutorials bc I do better with one on one training so I decided to research before I spend $$ on sewing and fail . I have been very hesitant and skiddish but your tutorials have been so easy to follow and give me confidence that I can do this!! Thank you do much!!
Awesome. YES. I know what you mean! It's hard to take that plunge if you're not sure that you like sewing yet. So I'm glad that you're having fun with it!
Thank you, so easy to follow this. I make the slip cushions and it it works perfectly
honestly, you are an angel... I tried these pillow shams and I was so impressed..thanx a lot I love you
haha. Awesome. yay! Dana
i actually went to IKEA few days ago to buy ready made ones but the 16by16 size doesn't have a pillow cover size... so i decided to make mine and you came to my mind...thanx a lot for your ideas gets me going. i really saved a lot of money and my husband is so amazed....now i can change my pillow cases ...yipeeee
Loved your video...on my way to Joann's to get some fabric and pillows now!! Thank you.
I can't believe I was successful! Thank you so much! Turned out perfect
The basic throw pillow helped alot. needed some guidance for a project.
You make it look so easy ... I am going to try your techniques... thanks for your tutorial
