SOME SEAM PRESSING TIPS!

Press!...don't SLIDE! Sliding your iron can stretch the fabric, especially those with bias edges! When pressing any seam, first press the seam together to set the stitches into the fabric. Then press the seam to the side, generally towards the darker fabric. Lastly, carefully press on the right side of the fabric.
