YaYa Orchid and some others were asking about my giddiness over scoring all those rolls of Stay Tape the other day. While sewing tip books say you can use the selvedge edge to stabilize seams - that works if your fabric is a medium weight - for necklines I like to use the lighter weight, almost sheer, Stay Tape. Sandra Betzina is a big fan, that's why many of her patterns call for stabilizing the necklines and shoulders with it. And it works - helps hold in necklines, preventing gapiosis...stabilizes pocket openings...you can even use it to help ease in seams, especially at the waistband.
