Do you have tips for saving/organizing interfacings?
marymary86 Intermediate GA USA Member since 7/20/08 Posts: 2200	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 7/15/12 9:47 PM I just ordered interfacing from Pam Erny's shop after hearing so many good comments here. I've ordered large quantities in the past from Nancy's Notions but later, I have no idea what's what. Does anyone have pointers on how to get organized? Pam sent me an email telling me what to start with for light weight knits and wovens. That's two different products right there! (No complaints - I'm thrilled as I know I'll be getting better results than using the same interfacing for every fabric and project as I did in the past.) ------ Mary http://checkmatesystem.com

Toss the info sheet in, as well, and you always know what's in which baggie and how to pre-treat etc. And you can get a LOT of interfacing into those vacuum-pack bags. Bed, Bath & Beyond sells them cheap. ------ I heart Panzy, Pfaff Creative Performance, the sewing machine love of my life!
