Tape Measure

Tape measures will a help us find the right size when measuring our body.  We have several clothing projects and will be using them alot.  I prefer the retractable ones since the regular tapes are difficult to store.  Warning, you must test the tape measure after purchasing and compare the measurements to a ruler.  Foreign companies have been known to not be correct and that doesn’t work very well when sewing!

They usually come in multipacks but you may be able to find individual ones locally (Hobby Lobby or Walmart)  Here is an example:  Amazon Link
