I’m new to garment making, so excuse me if I sound dumb. I’m a bit confused as to how the interfacing is cut to be smaller than the pattern piece. Does it start the same size and then you trim it? Or is there a separate pattern template for a smaller piece of interfacing? Thanks
Both, it depends. Sometimes a project will have a separate pattern piece for interfacing & sometimes it will not & you will want to cut it down. Great question!
If I’m using a pattern should I cut the interfacing using the pattern piece and cut my fabric an 1/8 of an inch bigger or cut my fabric with the pattern piece and cut the interfacing an 1/8 of an inch smaller? Great video!
I don't have a lot of experience using official patterns, but your interfacing should fit just inside the seam allowance of the fabric. That way you don't end up with interfacing stiffening the seam.
I need to give this a 👍👍
Please do 💕
It's a great video but can I say I love your pink dress! You look absolutely lovely in it.😊
Awww thank you. I got it on a trip to Seattle in a vintage store. I tailored it up & it fits like a glove now 💕😊🥰
@@SewAnastasia It's so retro it hurts ❤
Thank you! Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
So cool, I love you 💕
Thank you for watching :)
Can I use parchment paper instead of muslin?
Are items that are made with fusible interfacing washable in the washing machine? Ty
Parchment paper should work. Fusible interfacing over time will wear away & fall apart. The strongest is woven sew in interfacing.
@@SewAnastasia thank you 😊
Bey if I cut a pic of a old shirt can I use this to attach it to a new shirt ?
I should've watched this before attempting it freehand 😅
Oh no lol what happened?!
Can you use fusible when making valance curtains? Can I fuse then cut to exact shape and the edges of the fabric will not fray? Thanks!
Yes, absolutely
Once you attach the interfacing like this, is it safe to run it through a sewing machine? Or will it damage it?
Yes you can sew through it.
Could this stuff potentially stick fabric to card/cardboard?
Yes. I would use wonderunder or heat n bond.

@@SewAnastasia awesome! Thank you so much!
Great video. Question… if you have fabric that need more stabilization can you fuse all the pattern pieces?
You sure can!
Can I use it to hem a skirt?😊
You can use double fusible!

How is this a problem..? It says right on the instructions to do this…
Live n learn my sewing friend 💖
@@SewAnastasiaLolol😅
What is a muzzlin?
Muslin is a loose plain weave cotton material.
A piece of cloth you put on top to not damage your ironing board or iron. You can use a dish towel too!
