Being a sewing teacher, I often get questions from my students that I think are worthy of sharing with others who may have the same problem.  Here is a recent sewing question.

“My husband wants zippers added in the legs of his “coveralls” so that he can put them on without removing his work boots.  I know I have to open the seams but would like some instruction before I start as I’ve never added in a zipper. I’ve really only done about three zippers all together.  thanks. . .”

Sewing Techniques 

Sewing Friends:

First of all, I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!  I will have my family here.  How thankful I am for all of them.

Baking pies and stuffing the turkey doesn’t leave much time for sewing, but that’s OK.  I will sew and write another day.  Now is the time for counting our blessings.

I hope you really enjoy your day!

When you get some time, look over this sewing technique.  I just had to share it with you. 

One of my beginner sewing students really struggled with sewing angled bias strips together. She could never sew the angles so that the strip came out even. It always had a jog in it.

Maybe you have the same sewing problem. Well, you won’t anymore!  Here is the common sense solution for sewing bias strips with pointed ends. It just makes sense!

To Your Sewing Success,
Marian
