Many people don’t know this ancient sewing secret.

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

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 fabric. It’s easy to remove and won’t leave a permanent residue.

3. Reinforce seams with backstitching
To prevent seams from unraveling over time, use backstitching at the beginning and end of each seam line. This ensures greater durability of the garments.
