The listing, Stuffed Box Sewing and Needle work Goods!!!!!!!! has ended.
Ok So I have decided to do another stuffed flat rate box in (Size: 13 5/8" x 11 7/8" x 3 3/8") I will be adding items daily or every other day. I will keep adding items until the bugger is full! The more excited yall get the more excited I get and will think of other great additions! The last stuffed box ended up with an additional gift card so be on the look out!
Questions & Comments
For Sirah - Trace your patterns off using a Sharpie on cheap clear shower curtain liners from the Dollar Store. Great for adjusting your pattern fit too.
be sure that listia will let you add more picture's as the auction goes because once people start bidding you wont be able to add more pictures. unless you ask them. just a hint to let you know
Good chance there will be some as I am down sizing my stash, I will be packing the box a little at a time over the course of the auction so be sure to check back. I will post pictures of everything added to the box of course because I know I like to see exactly what I am bidding on!
Oh, and use 'transfer pencils' since they do not bleed, they also work well if you want to use and iron and transfer your markings. I have also use chalk with great success on the lining. I would never use sharpies on the lining though since they tend to bleed and distort the lines you draw. You need a clear definitive line when making pattens
Sirah, buy inexpensive sew in lining (for garments). I have been using the cheap lining for decades. I believe other seamstresses use this as well. I used to be able to buy munster paper for alterations but have not seen it in the stores in ten years. Alas, I turned to the sew-in lining and have been pleased with the results. I do use the blue artist tape to make the patterns wider as needed. It works well since it holds well and is repositional.
I'm fanning you and announcing my hunt for pattern making fabrics to bid on-- I don't need a tons of stuff as I live in a tiny apartment but I also can't protect paper patterns well enough to cut them out. Any suggestions?
Thank you all for your great suggestions! As the mother of 2 and on disability, I have too much time to fret over money and making every penny count. These suggestions are great! For my own addition... it's easier to thread string with a bit of wax but you can use an burnt out candle for your wax as long as it has soft sensation too it. I hope to have a lucrative home business up and running as soon as I can get time from the 3month old girl.
