Three tips to have your denim project turn out beautifully every time...because there's nothing worse than putting hours into a project and having it not turn out the way you want.

1. Serge or zigzag stitch around the open edges to stop fraying
2. Wash and dry your denim in the dryer 3 times.
3. Remove your denim from the washer immediately after the wash is finished so you don't get white marks on the creases from dye loss.
