Pressing Seams
When a pattern
direction says "press the seams open" this is what they mean.. Press on
the WRONG side of the fabric, and press the seams open as shown in the
photo. MOST seams on simple garments require this type of pressing.
When quilting, MOST
seams are pressed toward the darker fabric as shown in the photo.
Always use a pressing
cloth to protect your fabric when pressing on the right or pretty side of
your fabric, garment, or quilt. Use a pressing cushion when pressing sleeves or rounded
edges, and always press on a "test" scrap piece of fabric first.
