Avoid These Mistakes! 5 Tips for Sewing With Rayon
Here are 5 super common mistakes you might be making with rayon.
1. Cutting with shears. Rayon is slippery, so use a rotary cutter instead ✂️
2. Using high heat to iron. it can leave a shiny imprint on your fabric. Use medium heat and a press cloth 🔥
3. Forgetting to staystitch. Rayon stretches easily, especially around curves, like necklines and armholes 🙆♀️
4. Using an old needle, which can snag. 70/10 is a good size for rayon. You can even use Microtex or Sharp needles 💔
5. Hemming right away. Hang your rayon project overnight first so it can finish growing and stretching. You might need to trim it before hemming ⏰
