Hello,
I'm trying to take up the hem about a half inch on a 95% silk 5% elastane tank and it's not something I'll wear everyday so I am not going to bother sewing it. However, I don't want to use duct tape, because I don't want it to be obvious that it's taped...i'd like it to be a little discreet.
So I need a sticky, reliable, "discreet" tape that will work for sticking fabric on fabric--even a somewhat "heavy" fabric like silk&elastane. I was wondering what those of you who have experimented with tapes would recommend?
I've heard people say that double-stick carpet tape, toupee tape, etc. work...but I would appreciate some brand recommendations and maybe even advice on where to find them...
I just don't want to buy 4 tapes before I find one that is sticky enough.
Your help would be greatly appreciated!
