Sewing tip (video) - How to start a seam on thick layers of fabric more easily

I made a purse last night and while I waas sewing it up I thought the following tip might be helpful for newbie sewers... I made a short video and did a blog post, if anyone is interested.

It basically shows how to put a folded piece of fabric under your pressure foot to even it out with the purse (hope that makes sense).

Thanks for the tip!  I've been sewing for awhile but never thought of doing that - so easy and helpful!  Smiley

I also had a strong urge to smack my forehead when the lady that owns our local sewing shop told me about a while ago...  Wink
