We have all heard the old adage that practice makes perfect - and it is true in sewing like so many other aspects of life. But it can be hard to want to 'practice' when that practice can eat up materials that you love and that cost money. Here are some great tips to get some practice time in with zippers with no waste!
Read MoreI can not be the only one who kinda hates buttons and buttonholes. I only this year got a machine that can do a 1 step measured button hole - and it does make things slightly easier, but buttons and buttons hole often land my projects in the unfinished pile for at least a day or two longer than necessary. Honestly, I'm much rather put in a zipper for many patterns (not all because buttons really do have a beautiful aesthetic).
