Congratulations to Laura Guinazu as she starts her Congratulations to Laura Guinazu as she starts her internship with Bridge & Burn today!  We predict good things for everyone!
Getting ready to #handsew Lots of good television Getting ready to #handsew  Lots of good television to watch today.  Pull thread off your bobbin (so it won’t twist while sewing). To the elbow and back (that’s long enough). Wax (to smooth & make it stiff) and press between paper towels (so you don’t get wax on your press mat). Sharpen in your strawberry (emory is there). Let’s sew!
