PeelnStick Double Sided Basting Tape
Getting a zipper, strap or trim lined up is often a separate job from sewing it in place. PeelnStick gives you a narrow adhesive strip for holding that placement while you prepare your project.
The slim width is particularly useful where there is little room beside a stitching line. Plan your tape placement before sticking so it stays hidden within the seam allowance and out of the needle’s path.
Ideas for Your Sewing Table
- Aligning zipper tape along a pocket or pouch opening.
- Holding folded strap sections together before stitching.
- Positioning trims or appliqué details.
- Keeping fold over elastic aligned around an edge.
- Holding pattern pieces for cutting without pins.
Choose an application where you can keep the adhesive clear of the sewing line. Follow your pattern for the final stitching and attachment.
How to Use
- Try a small piece on an offcut first. Press the tape firmly onto the chosen area.
- Tear off the required length or use non-stick scissors.
- Gently roll the liner sideways away from the adhesive rather than pulling upward from the end.
- Remove the backing, align the second piece and press together.
- Secure the project by sewing or another suitable attachment method before washing.
Avoid handling the exposed adhesive. For a folded hem, enclose the tape inside the fold.
Helpful Tip from Chris
Mark or check your stitching line first, then check there is enough room beside it for the tape. A narrow strip can help with placement, but your finished seam still needs to follow the pattern’s specified allowance.
