  Before you sew you should baste. Basting prevents feeding problems while sewing and assures that the cloth panels will come out evenly. And, it is much easier to baste sails, bags, covers and more than to pin them in place. 60 Yard Roll.

Seamstick Basting Tape has a mylar film with adhesive on both sides. This "double-sided" tape is strong, neat and nearly invisible. Three widths are available 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2". The narrower widths work well with ripstop nylons and vinyls and are great for basting home sewing fabrics. Choose the wider widths when working with Dacron sailcloth and heavier fabrics.

Note: These basting tapes are left permanently in place and are invisible. If any needle gumming occurs, intermittently clean the needle with an alcohol swab or use Goo Gone.

For Sunbrella use: Seamstick 3/8" for Canvas. Those seamstick basting tapes are designed to stick to Sunbrella (Acrylic) much better.

 

Seamstick 1/4" Basting Tape (60 Yds) is a railroaded pattern

Reduce Seaming with Railroaded Fabric

Most upholstery fabric is 54 inches wide and, if it features a pattern, the pattern is run down the length of the bolt. When upholstering, it generally looks best to run a patterned fabric from the top to the bottom of the piece and from the back to the front. This requires seams every 54 inches on larger pieces like sofas and long boat cushions. Alternatively, a Railroaded fabric pattern can be used to eliminated unwanted seams. The patterns in Railroaded Sunbrellas run across their widths. This makes Railroaded Sunbrella perfect for these longer projects. 
 



In this illustration, the fabric rolls out to cover the cushions without need for a seam.


This is a photo example of the railroaded fabric coming off the roll.


 



This is a photo example of fabric that is not railroaded coming off the roll.

 


In this illustration the fabric rolls out vertically, and for this type of single cushion, would require several seams to cover the couch.
