Looey Looey's Tip about Prepping Fabric Before Stitching

Tip Topic: Prepping Fabric Before Stitching

I use Scotch Tartan brand masking tape along the edges of my fabric. Because I use the E-Z stand to do my stitching, I only need to do the two sides that are not attached to the frame. The tape is very user friendly - leaves no sticky residue and holds up very well until I'm ready to peel it off. Hope this helps you.
