How to Use Heat'n Bond Soft Stretch Hem Tape
Using Heat'n Bond Soft Stretch Hem Tape is as easy as 1-2-3. Here's a simple step-by-step guide:
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Measure and cut the tape to the length of your hem. |
| 2 | Peel off the backing paper and apply the tape to the wrong side of your fabric, along the edge you want to hem. |
| 3 | Use a dry iron on the highest setting (without steam) to heat the tape, activating the adhesive. Hold the iron in place for about 10-15 seconds. |
Once the tape is heated, your hem is secure and ready to wear. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions and test the tape on a small, hidden area first.
Tips for Using Heat'n Bond Soft Stretch Hem Tape
- For a truly invisible hem, use the tape with a narrow hem foot on your sewing machine to stitch the hem in place after applying the tape.
- To prevent the tape from sticking to your iron, place a pressing cloth or towel between the iron and the tape.
- For a wider hem, you can overlap the tape. Just make sure to heat the overlapping areas well.
Heat'n Bond Soft Stretch Hem Tape is a game-changer for sewists of all levels. It saves time, reduces the need for sewing, and ensures your hems stay looking great, wash after wash. So why not give it a try and revolutionize your sewing experience?
