FANTASTIC! We’ve all IMPATIENTLY SHOVED fabric through and then spent much more time correcting! 😢. Pressing cloth. 👏👏👏

I have always ironed tricky fabrics on the wrong side and might even use a damp pressing cloth (cotton).

What a beautifull dress and fabric. 💚
Thanks for the tips!

Excellent tips, especially the "paper under the seam allowance before pressing". I use a couple of long narrow envelopes, each about 1050 x240 mm in size. I glue the flaps down and use the non-flap side under the seam allowance. It's saved me a lot of unpleasant work removing the "railroad tracks" from the right side of the seam.

Very good tips & reminders. I found out how great the edge foot was to help me top stitch. Also love the stitch in ditch foot. I almost always forget to turn speed down after rewinding bobbins.

Great video, I love taking sewing slowly

Great tips, Julia...thank you. Do you have any videos on altering a pattern for specific measurements? I sew for my grandson who is always in between sizes, and I've just been winging it with the patterns, but it would help greatly to know how to alter them properly. Thank you! ❤ (And the dress you made for this video is beautiful and looks wonderful on you.)

So if I buy your course by September, 6th, it will only cost me $48.30 rather than $69? Once purchased? Do I own the information? Do I get to keep it forever? Or does the information expire after awhile?
