Sewing/home decorate quiz? I have some plain black curtains that I want to put polka-dots...
I have some plain black curtains that I want to put polka-dots on. I hold cut out a lot of small circles. It would give somebody a lift me forever to sew them on. I was thinking going on for using washable fabric epoxy resin to put them on. Is that a bad model??
Answers: There is such a product as fusible webbing, also called stitch witchery. I use it to repair pant hem and it washes fine but you can¡¯t dry verbs it. You can get it at any sewing store. I agree you might enjoy issues with fraying. There¡¯s another product call No Fray (or something like that) that you can apply to the edges. The downside it that it make the fabric for a moment hard and it can darken the color slightly.
I know you¡¯ve already cut out your circles, but I¡¯d approaching to suggest an easier and more washable alternative. I would get a small circle stencil, a small paint brush, and some material paint (available at Michael¡¯s or Hobby Lobby) and just paint them on instead.
I would do the iron on sewing. You can find it at your craft store or material store. I think it is call Wonder something and you can iron instead of sewing together
