Quilting Tip of the Week 2.5.15


I'm always looking for ways to store my sewing/quilting supplies without costing lots of $$$. Recycle those empty paper towel and wrapping paper rolls and store your pieces of different interfaces in them. On a piece of paper, write the type of interfacing and the amount in the roll and starting with a number one, list them.
In this way, you know before starting a project or when you are low on one particular type so you can purchase some when it's on sale again. Take the section of directions and either roll inside the roll or tape on the outside of the tube.
There--for just a few minutes of work, you have saved yourself when shopping if you have enough of the proper interfacing to finish your new project. One more tip--if you purchase the water-soluble interfacing like I do, be sure to keep in wrapped up in plastic to keep the moisture out. You can just slip a clear plastic bag over your roll if you wish.
