1/4" basting tape holds fabrics temporarily and then washes away. You can stitch through this double-sided transparent tape without gumming your needle. The washaway wonder tape makes sewing easy by holding seams and hems of fabrics together. It disappears when the fabric is washed for the first time leaving you with beautifully stitching. A great alternative to thread basting and pinning, it must be stored in a cool place. This package includes 10 yards of 0.25-inch wide washaway tape.
