How to Sew Baby Blocks

You can easily sew blocks for babies or young children.

Understanding Fabric Grain in Sewing

When you sew a new garment, you must prepare the fabric before you lay out and cut the pattern pieces. If you do not take the little extra bit of time to do this, you may find that your finished garment does not hang properly. It may ride up, pull and twist when you wear it. You can iron it, tug on it but no matter what you do, it will never fit right. You should always take a moment to test the fabric for the grain.
