I'm fond of that nylon tricot fusible for this sort of thing. Actually, fuse the whole piece. It lends an undefinable crispness to the finish and will full the top stitching. Imo, people don't use nearly enough fusible. More is here: http://bit.ly/KniiP<br /><br />Fwiw (this is my first visit here), I think many people don't realize how technical drafting is. It's an engineering function rather than an artistic one. As such, people with a grounding in hard sciences and math tend to do well with it.Kathleen Fasanellahttp://www.fashion-incubator.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751957416729779882.post-63634480078013710612009-09-27T18:20:25.956-04:002009-09-27T18:20:25.956-04:00A-HA!!!
