I am here to teach you How to make patterns last using freezer paper to make your patterns stronger! People keep asking me about my freezer paper trick with regards to tissue patterns. Spoilers: it's literally just ironing them together until they fuse. Anyway, here's a demo and I hope you enjoy! If you end up using this trick, tag me in your photos!!

The level of "I don't care what you think, I'mma do it how I want' in this video is goalz.

[EnchantedRoseCostumes]

Yep, you're a witch. that was magic! <3

[kimberlyhaggard]

SHE DID MAGIC! WHY HAVE I NOT THOUGHT OF THIS?

I saw the bell light up for this new video and the tip came right when I was planing to trash a tissue pattern and order a new one. It saved the pattern from being trashed and will be treated to this special care asap, and it saved me from spending money. thank you for this tip. :)

I have been doing this for over 20 years and guess what, I still have those patterns. This works amazing and you can Peres them over and over to to flatten them for use.

This is actually a great option for someone like me who costumes K-12, and needs to reuse these types of patterns repeatedly!

As soon as I heard your voice I knew it was an allergic reaction. The same they happens to me often after eating something I’m allergic to. I have a latex allergy and many foods have a naturally high level of latex (bananas, kiwi, mango, etc). There’s something specific in the change of pitch and tone from even a minor bit of throat swelling. Thanks for sharing and feel better soon!

Cutting is frustrating enough without adding the frustration of rippy tissue. Thanks for the perfect solution. Funny enough, I was just thinking of making some pj bottoms. 🤣

Great tip!!! Freezer paper is awesome for stenciling on clothes too. Just cut out the design you want and use fabric paints.

This would be an awesome choice for someone who loves the Palmer-Pletsch fitting method of taping the seam lines, pinning the seams of pattern pieces together and trying on the tissue. Thank you so much for the video!

YESSSS this is the kind of sewing hack that the world actually needs! Thank you Noelle!

[krystalgoulet]

I am so glad you did this video. Everyone always talks about using freezer paper for their patterns but no one ever showed HOW! Now I'm off to find freezer paper!

[Sabatuar]

Definitely need to remember this for my Big Four patterns.

[cherylspear]

What kind of magic is this?!!!! Be right back....going to do this to all of my patterns. Great video!

[allonsyemily]

Love this! I've had old patterns that are now scrunched up messes, but recently started tracing them with carbon paper onto butcher paper sheets. And I have ironed interfacing to both the iron and ironing board in the past so a little wax doesn't scare me, haha.

[valorieharkness]

Hey I have been doing that since the 1980 (yes my children its been 40 years! I started sewing for real at 25 and have been doing that ever since. It is my JOY in life)

[znycelondon]

Great I have a giant roll of the freezer paper that we use for our other projects.
Thank

I love these video’s from the Costuber’s community, they are so useful and such a generous sharing of information and such a saving of time for me, now returning to sewing after a 4 decade gap, (I kid you not ☺️) even the Vinegar tip to clean an iron is useful! Thank you so much, I’m now subscribing 😊

[joannaaugustine]

This is awesome!! I have a bunch of patterns from my grandmother that I've always wanted to use, but I'm afraid of tearing new tissue patterns, much less those, so I'll definitely be trying this out! Thank you!

[susanlein]

Glad to see you made it back home from your travels!
