Clothes Repairs and more with Velcro

I recently wrote about the ways I was making use of the new Velcro products (such as the Sew & Stick Tape for attaching a blackout blind), but it's also really useful to have certain items in your sewing kit for dressmaking and repairs. I've already mentioned the Hem Fix Kit, which is ideal for instant repairs, but Sew on Tape (plus Anti Snag Sew On Tape) and Iron on Tape are also great for use at home when you don't need an instant fix.

The Velcro Sew on Tape is ideal for many Home Furnishing and Dressmaking tasks. It can be used for hand or machine sewing of soft furnishings, garments and more round the home. Each pack contains 20 mm x 1 metre and is very long lasting and durable.

For fine and delicate materials prone to snagging use the Velcro Anti Snag Sew On Tape. Each pack contains 20mm x 3 metres (1.5 metres closure).

Want to make it even easier? For those who don't want to (or can't) sew try the Velcro Iron on Tape which is great for non-sew applications. Ideal for repairing and making clothes use it instead of Buttons & Zips. Each pack contains 16mm x 1 metre. Need help with your craft projects too?

It has been around for a long time, with the invention of the hook-and-loop' fastener in 1941, being named Velcro from a combination of the French words velours (or velour) and crochet (or hook). The Velcro brand name is now used to describe all similar products. The hook side is covered in tiny hooks which catch the loops on the other side and so holding the pieces together.

Seemingly so simple, and so many uses, in fact so many that we now have a whole range of Velcro products. I'll be looking into the many uses of Velcro in future articles, but one of our most popular products in this range is the Hem Fix Kit. (See it in action on trouser hems and shirts by clicking on the images.)

Not everyone thinks of Velcro being used for tasks such as fixing a hem, but this really useful repair kit is ideal to keep in the handbag / briefcase for those times when you wish you had an instant repair, such as at work, on a night out or an important function. Like other Velcro products, it's also extremely useful around the home being ideal for clothing, soft furnishings & craft projects.

Velcro Brand 25mm Stick On Squares are great for similar household or office uses and can be used to also keep lightweight items tidy and secure. They are ideal for light tools, notice boards, access panels, small electrical appliances, games & much more. Available in Black and White, each pack contains 24 sets of 25mm Black squares. Similarly you can buy Velcro Stick on Coins, which can also be purchased as hook only, and loop only packs.

It's strong, reliable, quick and easy to use and each pack contains 20 soft & flexible sticky strips (19mm x 50mm). This is a very reliable product, which won't let you (or your hem!) down.
