Hi , I put right sides together and cut both pieces the same size pin on each side before you sew 1/2 inch and after you sew each side lay it all on the flat surface and smooth it out. then on the the last side leave open about four inches to turn. poke outhe corners and press all edges smooth. Then I stitch 1/4 inch all around the edges. Put ric rack or some trim on the edges.

Any suggestions on how to prevent that? I'm just learning to sew. Worked real hard on it last summer and then got busy with school so planning to get back into it again.

Thanks!!
