My best sewing tip is to review the instructions before you begin so you understand ‘where’ you are going with the project.
My best sewing tip is iron your fabric first and after every step.
My best sewing to press as you go, you get cleaner lines and a more finished look. :o)
My best sewing tip is if you find yourself getting frustrated or upset for any reason while sewing – get up and walk away. Have a cup of coffee or make something to eat or take a short walk to get rid of the frustration. Come back to it with a clear calm head.
My best sewing tip is to make sure you have everything you need before you start
