hints on sewing special fabrics
Diagonal Stitching
Across the Point
LEATHER-LOOK VINYL
• Use masking tape or zipper adhesive
tape instead of pins or basting to hold
seams, zippers and hems in place for
stitching.
• Stitch with a long stitch (1 to 3 mm).
A short stitch may cut the fabric.
• Sew with a steady, even pace and
stitch accurately. Seams cannot be
ripped out without leaving needle
marks in the fabric.
• The shiny side of some vinyls tends to
stick to metal surfaces. Use a strip of
tissue paper between the fabric and
metal machine surfaces to prevent this.
• Topstitching holds seams and garment
edges smooth and flat and adds a
decorative note.
• Reinforce button and buttonhole areas
with interfacing. Bound buttonholes
are the best choice for vinyls with knit
backing.
• For sharp points on collars and lapels,
take one or two stitches diagonally
across the point to allow enough space
to smoothly enclose the seam edge.
CIRÉ (Wet-Look Taffeta and Tricot)
• Use masking tape or zipper adhesive tape instead of pins or basting to
hold seams, zippers, and hems In place for stitching.
• Stitch accurately; seams cannot be ripped out because needle marks
femain in the fabric.
• Sew seams under light tension by holding fabric slightly taut at front and
back of needle.
• Stitch ciré taffeta with a fairly long stitch 2,5 to 3 mm and use an
enclosed edge finish for seams and hems.
• Stitch ciré knits with a medium length-stitch 2 mm and use a fine
ball-point needle.
• Machine-worked buttonholes (as well as bound buttonholes) can be
made in ciré fabric. Always use an interfacing and make sure the close
zig-zag stitches do not cut the fabric.
