    Best elastic I’ve used

    Posted by Zoe on 4th Aug 2022

    I’ve bought this elastic time and time again. It’s definitely not the cheapest but the extra cost is so worth it if your goal is to great long lasting, comfortable garments. This stuff holds its shape and doesn’t twist or fold over, even after multiple wears and washes.

    soft elastic

    I make a lot of skirts and trousers, and always use this soft elastic instead of waistbands. I hate an unyielding feeling around my middle. This super stuff in several colours works with most fabrics I use and makes it easy to make garments without a pattern as well as those with a gathered waist or requiring a channel for elastic. Much neater!
    [This review also applies to the white and red elastic, so I'm not going to retype it!]. Haven't tried the blue yet.]

    supersoft waistbands

    Posted by Wendy on 9th Mar 2018

    Lovely flexible elastic makes skirts and trousers easy to construct without having to install zips. Just cut side of garment so you have enough leeway for hips, cut elastic to fit your waist plus about two inches for overlap, sew overlap. Then gather, or if you're brave, just pin the top of the garment evenly to waistband elastic and stretch elastic as you sew. As you allow elastic to contract again, the slack gets taken up and bingo, there's the top done.
