After you stitch the interfacing to the the facing, go back and understitch on the facing side before pressing. Then you won't need to topstitch on the facing. It gives a really classy look, which might not be a big deal on the inside of a dress, but it really looks nice on an unlined jacket.Alpine Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05886625200401094991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193367862444945572.post-3027581541578229062011-06-21T15:55:18.723-07:002011-06-21T15:55:18.723-07:00Beautiful story.
