Second Life For Tattered Worn Towels

Don't own a Serger - - Save Tattered Towels

Use a Zig Zag or Decorative Stitch

Clean up the edges with sharp scissors or a rotary cutter and secure the edges with a zigzag or decorative stitch.

Use a shortened stitch length and allow the needle to go "just" off the edge of the fabric to secure the threads of the towel.
