***Handy Tip Four***

When you start and finish sewing, always backstitch to secure the thread. Then pull the thread a few inches out and cut as close to the fabric as possible. This helps for 2 reasons. One, you won't have to tidy up the loose thread later, and Two, The sewing machine needle won't come unthreaded next time you use the machine (I forget to do this WAY TO OFTEN!) (image 1)

***Handy Tip Five***
