Pressing

Pressing is a mechanical technique used in sewing and fabric finishing to flatten and smooth materials, often with heat and pressure. It’s commonly employed to set seams, remove wrinkles, and give garments a polished appearance. Pressing involves applying a heated tool, like an iron or press cloth, directly to the fabric to help achieve a neat, professional look. Proper pressing enhances the overall fit and finish of a finished product, making the fabric look crisp and well-constructed. It’s an essential step to ensure garments look polished and hold their shape.
