Sewing in a hook with beautiful little stitches elevates a hook to a thing of beauty. :)Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15378489018825744806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-86131224289785588262015-06-07T07:40:05.386-05:002015-06-07T07:40:05.386-05:00I had thought about doing a video tutorial.

It was so convenient, and made a great waistband. I may have a very old tiny piece left somewhere. <br />I would love to see how you sew in your skirt hooks; it looks so lovely. The stitch looks similar to the one used when making a chain, for example, to attach a lining to a skirt.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15378489018825744806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-29784543662697419732015-05-06T22:01:28.491-05:002015-05-06T22:01:28.491-05:00It's been years, but I do remember using buckr...It's been years, but I do remember using buckrum in my waistbands.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597225763470037294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-62709487822006366342015-05-06T18:02:56.689-05:002015-05-06T18:02:56.689-05:00Even though I am not doing the sew along, I learn ...Even though I am not doing the sew along, I learn so much from you!

I didn't realise that it was no longer available at the fabric store. I used it for everything. In softer fabrics, I found it could actually wear through the top fold, so your tip of interfacing the waistband would be wise in that case. So nice to see this technique being taught once again. The waistband never folds when you use it.
