Fosshape® 300
36" x 45"
This unique felt-like fabric is heat activated to achieve rigidity, stiffness and surface enhancement without the use of water, messy or hazardous additives. Fosshape® can easily be cut with scissors, will not fray like conventional woven fabrics and can be readily sewn to itself or other fabrics as a hidden stiffener or shaped into stand alone structures.
Steamer
Steamfast Mini
This lightweight and compact mini steamer is perfect for applying the necessary heat to activate your Fosshape® while smoothing and shaping the material into your desired shape. This workhorse heats up in just 15 seconds and has three variable temperature settings, helping you work efficiently and avoiding any errors in overheating the material.
Measuring Tape
60" x 3/4" Flexible Band
Working with fabric and other soft materials on 3D forms can be tricky if you are new to it. So ditch the rigid ruler and use your flexible tape to get precise measurements when working with your Fosshape®. You'll feel like a true tailor with one of these draped around your neck as you create works of wearable art.
Scissors
Westcott All-Purpose Stainless Steel
A quality pair of scissors is a must for any costume maker. So don't make the mistake of using these on any other material than fabric. This will keep them sharp and dependable each time you reach for them. These can be replaced with 5" safety scissors for children if needed.
Fabric Marking Pen
Dritz Mark-B-Gone
This water-soluble pen is perfect for transferring patterns to fabric or soft material. The blue ink is easily removed with a bit of water or steam applied directly to the surface. Simply trace the pattern from paper to your material, then cut and sew. Once complete the ink can easily be removed.
T-Pins
Dritz – 1 1/4"
We absolutely love using T-Pins rather than straight pins for our work. Why? Because they are perfect for securing patterns to both soft and more rigid material like foam and the large T makes them easy to spot and remove.
Sewing Needles
Dritz – Various lengths & sizes
No sewing machine? No problem. Fosshape® can easily be sewn by hand and that's where these guys shine. This pack of sewing needles lets you join two pieces together where curves are too complex to shape. And you can use them on all sewing projects including replacing that loose button on those pants you've been wanting to fix.
Thread
110 yard All-Purpose
This synthetic thread is perfect for both hand and machine sewing. It can hold up to the stress of a seam or simply be used to temporarily secure two pieces while they are heat formed. Oh and it accepts dye and paint just as well as the Fosshape® keeping your seams nearly invisible.
