Tip of the Week

Those slick, shiny new vinyls that are available today make me dream of a springtime April shower and dancing in the rain sporting bright yellow rain coats or shiny rain ponchos.

The vinyls can be a bit tricky to sew---you must get the stitches right the first time otherwise your project will be full of holes that are impossible to get rid of in all the wrong places.

Use some painters tape instead of pins and you'll have accurate stitches without pin holes.
