{Sewing Tip Tuesday} #3

Are you ready for another fantabulous sewing tip?!?!? Of course you are!


I use this tip ALLLLL the time. I thought of it out of necessity, kinda like last weeks tip.

So let's say you have a piece of fabric you want to attach something every small to and it's difficult to put a pin through it...what do you do?? I have this problem primarily with labels I'm attaching to a product. They're small.

 Can you see why it would be difficult to put a pin through this and they try and sew around it?? Not to mention it would slide. Seriously makes me want to pull my hair out

Enter the miracle fix....DOUBLE STICK TAPE....it will save you so much frustration, trust me!

Just put a couple tiny pieces on the back 

And stick it where you want. Works like a charm!

Hope this helps in your sewing adventures :)

  2. Another option is to use a small piece of light weight fusible on the back and iron it down. Tape is not meant to go through a wash and dry cycle, but the fusible is. Using such a tiny piece and using the light version, you will not even know it's there once you stitch your label down. Just thought I would share this as well as your great tip. :)
