My sewing tip or trick is patience. Be patient, don’t rush and have faith
My favorite sewing tip or trick is to cut out several items at once, especially if they will use the same color of thread. Then you can sew them all up at once time without having to change your machine and bobbin thread. This works especially well for doll clothes when you are using fat quarters.
My favorite sewing tip: I enjoy including my granddaughters in the planning phase. I have made copies of the pattern envelopes, cut out the individual views (write pattern and view number on the back of the cut out picture), have the girls choose which fabric for which outfit, then place picture and fabric in a gallon zip lock bag. When I have time, I pin, cut and sew outfits. If there are more than one of a view, I try to complete them at the same time.
Love all the tips and ideas I get! Thanks so very much
My favorite sewing tip or trick is (ironing the fabric before cutting out the pattern) and these wonderful patterns. Thanks again.
