Problem: Article: When you buy fabric off the bolt in a store, take a look at one of the side edges of the bolt. If you see any instructions on how to wash, dry, and iron the fabric, write them down. If you don't have anything to write with, snap a picture with your phone or camera instead. If you forgot to record the washing, drying, and ironing instructions, look the fabric type (i.e.: cotton, chiffon, wool, etc.) online. This includes prints, stripes, and plaids. It is especially important if you will be sewing a garment. When you sew a garment, you will have to match up the patterns on the seams. This means that you will end up using more fabric than the pattern calls for. Anywhere from a 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 inch (0.64 to 1.27 cm) extra would be a safe bet. You can disregard this step if you are cutting fabric for an item without seams, such as curtains. Fabric tends to shrink after it is washed. You need to do this before you start cutting or sewing the fabric. If you don't, your finished piece will shrink considerably the first time you wash it. Keep in mind that some fabrics need to be dry cleaned. In this case, take it to an experienced dry cleaner.  You don't need to pre-wash muslin if you are using it for fitting or drafting. You don't need to pre-wash fabric that's already been preshrunk. The bolt should say whether or not the fabric has been preshrunk. Take the fabric out of the washer/dryer right after it's done washing/drying. This will reduce wrinkles. Some fabrics don't wrinkle at all, so you may be able to skip this step. If you got the fabric dry cleaned, then it should already be pressed for you. If your fabric has wrinkles in it, however, you will need to iron them out. Remember to use the iron setting recommended on the bolt.
Summary: Copy the washing, drying, and ironing instructions at the store. Buy more fabric than you need if it has a pattern on it. Wash and dry the fabric according to the instructions on the bolt. Press the fabric with an iron, if needed.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: One of the main causes of streaks on a window is the cleaning product itself. This happens when the cleaning product has time to dry on the window, which occurs if you don’t wipe it off quickly enough after cleaning.  On sunny days, your cleaning product will dry much faster, giving you less time to wipe it off, and increasing the chances that there will be streaks. To prevent this, wait for a cloudy day to clean your windows. Wind is another factor that can dry your cleaning solution prematurely, and this will also lead to streaks on your window. Wait for a day that’s calm and with as little wind as possible. Not only will the wind dry your cleaning product quickly, but it could also blow dirt and debris onto your freshly cleaned windows. Rain doesn’t just contain water, and is also full of minerals, pollutants, dirt, and other contaminants that could leave residues and streaks on your freshly cleaned windows. To avoid this, leave your window cleaning for a dry day. Windows should ideally be cleaned twice a year, but some seasons are better than others for this. Winter is really the only season when you should avoid window cleaning, simply because freezing temperatures, warm water, and wet windows can lead to cracked glass.  Fall is one of the best times to clean windows, but you may have to hold out for a dry and calm day.  Late spring and early summer are also ideal for window cleaning, but you'll have to wait for a day that’s not too sunny or rainy.

SUMMARY: Clean your windows on a cloudy day. Choose a calm day. Wait for a dry day. Choose the right season.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Once the gelatin has dissolved, place the bowl into the fridge. Leave it there until the gelatin sets. This will typically take between 3 and 4 hours. A bottle with a nozzle will be the easiest to use, but a glass jar will be much better, especially you used essential oils. Keep the jar in the fridge for 1 to 2 weeks.
Summary: Refrigerate the gelatin until it has set. Transfer the gel into a container.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Make an appointment with your primary care physician or OBGYN. Come prepared with a list of topics that you’d like to discuss. Be prepared to talk about how you’ve experienced pain during sex. Ask them about possible treatments. Depending on the potential diagnosis, your doctor may also order tests or bloodwork.  For example, endometriosis is a painful medical condition that can effect women and must be diagnosed by a physician. If left untreated, it can cause a woman a great deal of pain during intercourse.  Other medical causes of painful sex include eczema in sensitive areas, vaginismus or spasms in the vagina, pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian cysts, or scarring from surgery. Different types of pain might signal certain issues. Tell your doctor when during intercourse you feel pain and what type of pain it is. Some questions you might want to answer include:  Do you have pain during penetration or only during thrusting? Does the pain last after sex? Does the pain throb, burn, or ache? Is this a new pain or an old condition? If you are suffering from a lack (or excess) of testosterone, estrogen, or another hormone, this could impact your level of pleasure or pain during sex. Talk with your doctor about possible treatment options to correct any hormonal problems. They may suggest a cream, a medicated ring, oral medications, or a treatment patch.  Some of these treatments can be highly successful with up to 75 percent of patients stating that their sexual pain lessened.  Menopause, birth, breastfeeding, and polycystic ovary syndrome can all affect your hormones, leading to painful sex. If you have any type of sexual transmitted disease (STD), make sure to talk with your doctor before engaging in sexual intercourse. Also, seek out treatment if you are suffering from any type of genital infection as it could likely cause dryness and pain during sex. For example, men and women can both suffer from cystitis, which is a bladder infection that can cause pain during intercourse. Another common cause is a urinary tract infection (UTI). Visit your doctor get a prescription for an antibiotic. If you have a prior injury, then working with a physical therapist could help to increase your movement and flexibility. These changes may also lessen your pain during sex. Older persons may find physical therapy helpful as well, especially if they suffer from nerve conditions. You can find a therapist in your area by going to the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) website. A sex therapist will talk with you alone, or with you and your partner, about any concerns regarding your sex life. They might be able to offer exercises or communication tactics to lessen pain during intercourse. If you’ve been sexually assaulted in the past, it is probably a good idea to talk with a counselor. This will help you to find pleasure, instead of pain, from sex.
Summary:
Talk with your doctor. Describe what type of pain you have. Address any hormonal imbalances. Treat any infections. Enroll in physical therapy. Meet with a sex therapist.
