Tips to Improve Your Sewing Experience Using Old Tricks
Here are 4 valuable sewing tips that can enhance your sewing experience, all using time-tested techniques:

Use Wax to Strengthen Thread
Before sewing, run your thread through a piece of beeswax. This will prevent tangling and strengthen the thread, making it more resistant to wear and tear while facilitating smoother seams.

Mark Fabrics with Dry Soap
If you don’t have a fabric pencil or marker on hand, a simple piece of dry soap can be used to mark your fabric. It’s easy to remove and won’t leave a permanent residue behind.
Reinforce Seams with Backstitching
To ensure that seams don’t come undone over time, use backstitching at the beginning and end of each seam. This extra step provides greater durability and strength to your garment.
Use Diagonal Pins
Place your pins diagonally across seams when preparing your fabric. This will prevent them from slipping and make it easier to feed the fabric through the sewing machine without constantly removing the pins.
