General Tips
Don’t forget to replace the blade in your rotary cutter occassionally. A fresh blade makes cutting easier, more precise, extends the life of your cutting mat and helps to alleviate strain on your wrists and hands.
Microtex Sharp sewing machine needles are great for sewing precise seams. Replace your sewing machine needles often, not just when they break! Damaged or worn needles result in broken or shredded threads, skipped stitches, puckered fabrics, damaged fabrics and uneven threads. Replacing your sewing machine needle is the easiest way to improve your stitch quality.
