To keep thread from kinking, al

When stitching heavy material, like
canvas or duck, rub soap along the
places to be stitched and it will not
be so hard on the machine.
Metal teapots, if seldom used,
should have a lump of sugar in them
to eliminate the musty odor.

sliced banana to the white of one
