Best Answer

The easiest fabric to sew is light to medium weight cotton. This fabric cuts easy, and the raw edges stay even for nice even seams.

It is great for sewing easy projects when starting out as a beginner.

Use a good quality multi-purpose thread and use a standard 11/75 sewing machine needle.
