"Excellent advice. Also, make sure to finish all seams neatly, either with pinking shears or overcast stitching."

"In 'How to sew a quilt", #3, sew which direction? #5, again which direction or side? #12,which way, how much? #15, Huh? That "explanation" was not informative to me and I've done miles of sewing. How is this for the beginner? Where are the pictures? At least there should be one picture of what your description will make, the way you are directing. So confusing."

How To Upcycle Basketball Shorts

"Learn how to upcycle adult basketball shorts into basketball shorts for children. Use an upcycled shorts sewing pattern for a quick sew! My son has gotten to the stage where he loves wearing comfortable athletic clothing as much as he can. (Who am I kidding, I’d love to live in leggings and joggers every single day!) Too keep up with his need, I turned some of my husbands old basketball shorts into shorts for my son. He loves wearing them to soccer and around the house and even to school. This is such a fun upcycling sewing project!"
