Instructions:
1. Cut Framilastic shorter than the length of the distance to sew, depending on how much gathering you want.
2. Sew Framilastic with a zigzag stitch at the beginning (approx. 1 cm), then stretch it to the full length of the distance to sew. Sew a zigzag stitch down to the entire length of the Framilastic.
3. Be aware of sewing in the middle of the Framilastic tape. This makes it lay evenly and gives even stability.
The supplier recommends not to use fabric softener.
