Step 1
Think about the garment you want to make. For example: a dress shirt collar and front panel need to have a stiff interfacing to hold its structure.
-
Step 2
Consider the garment and how you want it to feel on you. Do you want a soft feel or a structured, crisp feel? Does the fashion fabric need to be washed or dry cleaned? This will also make a difference in the selection for interfacing.
-
Step 3
Evaluate if a fusible or sew-in interfacing will work best on your fabric choice.
-
Step 4
Read all information that you can find to learn about each interfacing you are considering to use.
-
Step 5
Take into consideration your sewing skills and time available for the project.
-
Step 6
To save time and frustration with any project, always do a test sample of a few different types of interfacing that you think could work with your fashion fabric.
