NATIONAL SEWING MONTH - DAY 6...

Ok George, that's a marvelous idea!
SEWING TIP OF THE DAY
(Maybe you've heard this, but just in case you haven't) 

CONCAVE/CONVEX
Stitching concave/convex seams (such as armholes or sleeves) can be difficult at times.  I use Peggy Sagers' advice and sew these seams at 3/8" rather than 5/8" and my stitching goes so much better.  
Decreasing the seam allowance in this area also eliminates the need to trim the seam afterwards - Time-Saver.
