sewing101What weird but fun/quirky/intriguing sewing tips have you seen in the wild?
I'll start:
My mom always taught me to "grease" a needle by stroking it against your HAIR, which IIRC she learned from her mom; my late grandparents were originally textile merchants. Reactions to this when I recount it to people range from "huh, that makes sense" to "HORRORS, hair oils all over my thread/fabric!!!"
