Dritz Wash-A-Way Wonder Tape, 1/4" x 10-Yards, 1 Roll, White

This is a life-changing sewing hack! Pinning can become a long and tedious process; not to mention the frustration of always being sure to maintain accurate alignment of your fabrics. Even though this will not ever eliminate the pinning process completely, it is an excellent alternative- or even addition- to pinning! It could be stickier, but if you are sure to really press your fabric together on the taped part, it will hold in place well enough to do its job (just keep this in mind and handle your fabrics gently if you are moving it around so it doesn’t separate) But that is an incredibly minor factor in comparison to what a great product this is, especially for only a few dollars! Initially, I was skeptical about just HOW dissolvable the tape would be after being washed. I half-expected for the garment to come out of the washing machine with some trace of sticky residue, or fibers remaining between the stitches I made over the tape line. But WOW! Any sign of the tape was COMPLETELY eliminated from the fabric! I never would have known if I hadn’t done it myself! (even in COLD water wash loads!) This saves so much time and frustration, improves accuracy and hold, and comes with a lot of tape; one roll will last you for a while! This tape has become a permanent fixture on my sewing table!

The only sewing tape that I can use without gumming up my needle. Never causes an issue with stitches whether using on cloth, vinyl, cork, or plastic. While not the strongest hold of other double sided tapes, I’d much rather know I’m not going to have missed stitches due to adhesive residue. Sometimes the second side of the backing is a little hard to remove, but once you get the hang of it, it’s easy to use. Also easy to remove any excess tape or pull it out of seams if you’d rather not actually wash it away with water.

I use this Wonder Tape when making bags, and it has been very useful. It is very sticky and helps hold pieces in place while sewing. A little goes a long way, so I try to place it carefully. Overall, it works well for what I need it for.

It works but it’s not as sticky as I thought it would be. Sticks well to paper and cardboard though.

First time using this, and it is great! I didn’t understand it at first, because you have to unravel a couple rounds of plastic before you actually get to the tape product. Before I figured that out, I didn’t know what the heck I was looking at! Tips: tear the tape instead of cut it, and it separates more easily. After placing the tape, I used a warm iron to set, as it pretty much doesn’t have adhesive otherwise. Easiest hemming job I have ever done, and tape did not gum up the needle. I haven’t washed the item yet, but given that the tape is under the hem, I don’t care if it washes off or not. Will buy more as needed!

Perfect to hold hems in place before you sew them; especially stretch, polyester, and knit fabric. It washes out completely !

I wanted a 1/4" DST so decided to order the Dritz. What a waste of money and time. It is almost impossible to separate the paper from the tape. It does not stick worth a darn to canvas, quilt cotton, or vinyl. I only ordered it because Annie's DST only comes in 1/8" width. By Annies is the absolute best DST out there and I am hoping she will eventually make 1/4 & 1/2" tapes. I make bags and install a lot of zippers and this Dritz is garbage. By the way, it is also overpriced, especially since it doesn't work worth a darn. Worst of all, I ordered it from Amazon and then ordered it from another site by mistake so I am stuck with two rolls! I don't know how anyone can give this DST a good rating. Maybe it works better on lighter fabrics, but I can tell you it is not worth your time or money to order this if you make bags, totes, pouches, etc.

This stuff saved a lot of frustration in a simple way. I was using some of the printable stick n stitch wash away fabric to apply my embroidery design but the 8.5x11 in sheets were too small. I needed two of them to go across the back of the denim work shirt I was working on. This left a gap that kept pulling apart... tried stitching across it but that tended to pull. Putting on the embroidery hoop made things pull apart more also. This thin tape worked perfectly to 'seal' the gap together. It is slightly stickier than the stick n stitch fabric so it is holding fairly well. Since it also washes away? perfect solution. It did add a bit of thickness to stitch thru but given the problem I was working with, I was OK with that. It's not terrible. Nice solution for a reasonable cost and I'm sure I'll use it again.

This is an absolute must-have when hemming jersey or stretch fabric. Look on the net for a demonstration of how to use it and you can't fail. Wise to have a little practice using waste fabric though.

Para sujetar cremalleras antes de coserlas es muy práctico si se tiene un tejido difícil. Merece la pena. Para cualquier cremallera lo considero un poco caro.

Perfeito para meu trabalho.

ist für die Hobbyschneiderin eine wahnsinnige Erleichterung beim Einnähen von Reißverschlüssen. Alles zusammenkleben und alles bleibt dort, wo man es haben will. Kein lästiges Nadelziehen und kein Verrutschen mehr. Tolle Erfindung

Je m'en sers à chaque projet couture pour les coutures des poches sur le devant des tee-shirts et pour faire les ourlets avec la recouvreuse. Je suis conquise par cette bande autocollante des deux côtés qui part au lavage.
