While waiting patiently on my package of goodies to arrive from Amazon, I thought I would do a little prep work for my upcoming crafts. Here is a list of items I have at the ready:
fabric
felt
sewing machine
thread
buttons
needles
pins
stuffing
rice
paper for pattern
self-healing cutting mat
Tip: Always cut thread at an angle. It makes threading a needle so simple!
Eco Tip: Instead of buying paper for patterns, use what you have on hand. I use old folders and cereal boxes. The heavier weight improves the life of my patterns and I love anything that helps me recycle.
Never knew about cutting thread with an angle - and my mother is a private seamstress. Simple, easily remembered and applied - thanks!
