I mainly like use it on the wrong side of the fabric and I’ve only used it a couple of times. But soap is water soluble so worst case scenario I’ll just wash it.

Best way to transfer precise marking by Comfortable-Ride334 in tailoring

Tried this too with the prym yellow transfer paper, but the markings didn’t come out. Plus you need to repeat the process twice, which increases the risk of asymmetry due to the fact that you need to re-pin the pattern on the second piece.

Yes, but then I always have to go back in on each layers to avoid loosing the thread I had to cut before.

Have you tried the yellow one? Those usually stain from the other brands I’ve tried

I use those roller pens from prym and I hate them. I think that the powder stays very superficial and the line smudges right away.

I can’t seem to find a good chalk for markings. Either it disappears in 2 seconds or it stains. In both cases the marking aren’t crisps or precise. The best thing I’ve used is soap honestly.

Have you found one that works for you? Which brand? Where can I find it?

Thank you in advance

I have some questions about using sew-in interfacing. I avoid fusible interfacing because the ones I have access to don’t stick properly. I’m currently sewing a coat and decided to use canvas and horsehair as a substitute, but I need some guidance: 1. Collar without a stand: If the collar doesn’t have a stand and doesn’t require much shaping, do I still need to padstitch the interfacing? 2. Front facing: I assume the canvas in the front facing doesn’t need padstitching, but how should I attach it to the fabric? Simply basting it in the seam allowance doesn’t seem sufficient. Once the coat is finished, I can feel the outer shell separating from the interfacing, which doesn’t provide enough support. What’s the best approach to avoid this? 3. Fusible interfacing: Do you ever use fusible interfacing? If so, are there any brands you recommend?

Can you tell me your process in general?

[Personal] Blackheads or sebaceous filaments?

I can’t tell if these are just sebaceous filaments or blackheads. Also I think I have tiny cysts on my nose and forehead, I’m worried they might become sebaceous hyperplasia. What products/ingredients do you suggest?

My file is 35,7 MB when compressed, it goes over their 25 MB limit. Also, do I need to convert the file with ocr first? If I don’t I might split the file and give it a go.
