New fabrics are coming on the market all the time. Remember that soft fabrics may

need to be stabilized a little. This is especially true when buttonholing,

monogramming, or design sewing as the stitches are so close together. A backing of

tissue paper or interfacting may assist you in your sewing. The paper may be torn

away and the interfacing cut away after sewing. Check your fabric by making

samples of the designs, monograms, or buttonholes on a scrap of fabric before sewing on your garment.
