How to Cut Fabric Perfectly Straight

May 9, 2022 by Claudia Porter

I don’t know about you but many times I have cut into a favorite piece of fabric and ruined it by not cutting correctly.  What is even worse is when you cut it wrong and end up not having enough left for a pattern.  This tutorial from Ageberry has you covered.

Covering pretty much every type of fabric available, you will be cutting straight lines like a pro in no time.

There is even a video to help you square up fabric when you are cutting.

It may look easy, but sometimes cutting fabric can be hard, especially if the fabric is extra slippery or if you have some issues with your hands.

This detailed article will help you out and you can find it here: How to Cut Fabric Straight

Monday Quilting Fabric Deals for the Win!

Some Mondays feel a little more “Monday” than others — the laundry pile is high, the inbox is full, and your sewing machine is calling your name louder than usual. That’s when a quick scroll through Fat Quarter Shop’s Precut of the Week is the perfect pick-me-up. It’s affordable, fun, and full of possibilities.

Every Monday brings a new deal, and half the excitement is seeing what pops up. Maybe it’s a jelly roll from a fabric line you’ve adored from afar. Maybe it’s a charm pack that would be perfect for a quick weekend project. Or maybe it’s the fat quarter bundle you swore you’d buy “someday.”

For more ways to use these deals creatively, here are some great internal reads:

If you love sewing for others — birthdays, babies, holidays, charity events — precuts make the process so much easier. They speed up cutting, offer built-in color harmony, and give you more time to enjoy the actual sewing part.

This internal article is a great place to spark ideas for fast projects:
