Malena enjoys cutting out the pattern pieces. Johanna does not. But they agree on one thing: how you cut can really make or break a sewing project. So, they dig into practical strategies for cutting pattern pieces, including how to prep, align, mark, and cut.
Plus some great advice on how to deal with those tricky fabrics (Johanna has three words for you: single-layer cutting).
P.S. Malena had some light sound issues in this episode.
