Sir Snips’ Daily Snippet
Don’t break the chain.
When sewing lots of matching patchwork units, feed the next pair under the presser foot without cutting the thread after each seam. Leave a couple of stitches between units, keep the pairs in order, then snip the finished chain apart. It saves time, reduces thread waste, and keeps repetitive piecing moving neatly.
Assembly line, darling—not a traffic jam.
Are you a chain piecer—or do you stop and snip every time?
