Fabric Folding Pen
Fabric Folding Pen with Instructor Steve Butler Class 161 View at our website What is it?

The truth is though, those initial ironing steps are a significant factor in determining whether our finished project is something that is polished and…

If we were to make a list of essential actions required to achieve our most lofty creative aspirations when sewing, pressing would be near or even at the top of that list. Precise pressing of our project component pieces during the construction process often marks the difference between a completed project that appears polished and professional or something that appears more homemade and amateurish.
