🧵 June Sewing Tip for Bag Makers
|
Use Wonder Clips Instead of Pins!
|
When sewing multiple layers of interfaced fabrics, cork, vinyl, or faux leather, pins can leave permanent holes and distort your layers. Wonder Clips keep everything aligned without damaging your materials and make it easier to achieve crisp, professional seams.
|
|
Bonus Tip: Lengthen your stitch slightly (3.0–3.5 mm) when sewing heavily stabilized projects for smoother, more professional-looking topstitching.
