Button Hole - Thursday Tip

A little tip for perfect buttonholes. When creating buttonholes always use a piece of lightweight interfacing on the wrong side of the fabric to stabilize your buttonhole.  Perfect each time!

Sewing Tip

THURSDAY 's  SEWING TIP

Trying something new on Thursday's. As you all know I enjoy sewing as well as teaching people how to sew. While planning classes to teach and sewing my own things to either sell or make as gifts or for my family, I read a lot of material about sewing. Being a Sewing Teaching I have to stay up on different techniques and products. Well, to make a long story short, I don't recall where I read this but I thought this would be great to share.

This is kind of my Upcycle Sewing Tip. If you have been to a sewing class, you would have noticed my bobbins are usually slightly unwound. Or when I am packing or unpacking a bobbin might fall on the floor. This drives me nuts. I know there are notions you can purchase to store your bobbins. But I found a way to store my bobbins using what I already have in my bathroom. When my girls were younger they were very interested in painting there toe nails. So we went out and bought little manicure sets. Well, take a look!
