Interfacing
Sometimes a fabric needs a little extra support to achieve the finish you're after. That's where interfacing comes in! Interfacing is used to add structure, stability and support to selected areas of a garment or sewing project, helping them hold their shape during wear and washing.
At Wicked Fabrics, I've curated a selection of interfacing for home sewists and small handmade businesses. Whether you're making everyday clothing, sewing accessories or creating items for your own customers, the right interfacing can make a difference to the finished result.
Common uses for Interfacing:
-
Collars and cuffs: Help add structure and maintain shape.
-
Waistbands: Provide extra stability and support.
-
Button plackets: Help prevent fabric from stretching or losing shape around buttonholes.
-
Pockets: Add support where needed, particularly on lightweight fabrics.
-
Bags and accessories: Give fabric more body and help finished pieces hold their shape.
-
Craft projects: Useful for a range of projects requiring additional structure.
Choosing the right Interfacing
Interfacing comes in different weights and constructions, so it's important to match it to your fabric and project. Consider whether you need a lightweight finish or more substantial support, and check whether your pattern calls for fusible or sew-in interfacing.
Always follow the product instructions for application and test on a fabric scrap before applying it to your finished garment.
