Can we just talk about how amazing and beautiful your sewn curves are? You make it look TOO EASY!

Thank you so much! It’s a LOT of practice. I am planning on doing a little curves masterclass inside the 7t7 club as it’s just been requested. Thanks for your lovely comment

I just don’t understand how you sew so accurately and close to the edge. Today is my first day

[@Studio7t7]

Many years of practice. Don’t be afraid to just go for it! And go slow and steady. I don’t always get it right 🫢

What is the difference between tricot covered foam and naked flexible foam? Since the foam is encased within fabric is the tricot necessary? Is one firmer than the other?

[@Studio7t7]

Hi these are both more used in upholstery than bag making. In fact I haven’t used either much (unless the regular sew in foam is the tricot covered one!) but I imagine that the wear and push of bag making isn’t very conducive to using these types of stabilisers. That’s why using a sew in foam which has fabric either side is better. Not sure if I’ve helped much! I would def recommend if you have either of these to have a play and see how they hold up to bag making! Thanks for watching and the great comment.

The sew in foam you are using is tricot covered. I was asking about naked foam. Probably best in upholstery but sooo much cheaper

@@tracygill8900 apologies I was reading and answering on the go 🤦‍♀️. I haven’t tried naked foam and would imagine like I say that it could tear from the fabric during birthing but if it’s a great deal, no harm in trying it.
