1. Use wax to strengthen thread
Before sewing, run the thread through a piece of beeswax. This will prevent tangling and strengthen the thread, making it more resistant to wear and tear and facilitating a smoother seam.

2. Mark fabrics with dry soap
If you don’t have a pencil or fabric marker handy, you can use a piece of dry soap to mark the fabric. It’s easy to remove and doesn’t leave a permanent residue.
3. Reinforce seams with backstitching
To ensure that seams don’t come undone over time, use backstitching at the beginning and end of each stitching line. This ensures greater durability in garments.
4. Use diagonal pins
Place pins diagonally across seams when preparing your fabric. This will prevent them from slipping and make it easier to feed the fabric through the sewing machine without having to constantly remove them.
