Tailoring Tips
Tobacco or black pepper are natural moth repellants. Also, bay leaves, cedar, cloves, cinnamon, eucalyptus, lavender, rosemary, or wormwood will keep away unwanted bugs. Always clean garments before storing.
To prevent fabric from being pulled down into the sewing machine throat when sewing straight stitch, use a single stitch throat plate instead of the multi-use zigzag plate.
Never cut paper with fabric scissors. Paper will dull the scissors and make cutting fabric difficult.
