Vlieseline Stretchfix tape is used for creating soft hems in garments that are made from stretch fabrics. Stretchfix is an iron on adhesive web that is on transfer paper. Stretchfix hem tape will keep the elasticity of the fabric and is suitable for light to medium-weight elastic fabrics.
Fabric:
Light to medium-weight elastic fabrics e.g. jersey
Benefits:
- Stretchy
- Activated by heat
- Precise hemming without measurements
Directions:
1. Iron on the Stretchfix T30 along the edge with 2-3 dots with a dry iron, for 10 to 12 seconds. Then iron the hem up along the fold at the width of the tape (before removing the paper). This way you have already defined the width of the hem and the fold without having to measure anything.
2. Then let the paper cool down completely and remove it.
3. Fold the hem upwards, cover with a damp cloth and iron section by section for around 10 to 12 seconds, with the iron on 2-3 dots. Do not push the iron.
We recommend that you test the product before starting your project.
Care:
Washable in temperatures up to 40°C, moderate iron, dry cleanable.
