Terrific Tip Tuesday: Perfect Corners

TerifficTipI love to make bags! What I don't love is turning out the corners. There are tons of tools; I'm a fan of the skewer myself. I've found when the bag has lots of interfacing, it's even harder. My solution, dampen the corner! You don't need to soak it, just slip it under the faucet for a second.
