Hi! I’m Jennifer on behalf of expertvillage.com. I’m from A Perfect Fit Alterations in Burleson,
Texas, 817-447-3522. Today we’re going to talk about notions. You’ll find what sewing
notions you need on the back of a pattern, you look down here at the bottom and for this
pattern for instance you’ll need thread, a zipper, hook and eye, and 4 buttons. This
pattern is a pair of pants, this one calls for elastic, this one also calls for a hook
and eye and this one has snaps, various patterns will have various notions that you’ll need
to complete the project. Here we have some zippers for instance, different types of sewing
thread, we have some serger thread, glue to keep your project intact before you can sew
it down, some elastics, different types of fasteners, buttons, hook and eyes and some
snaps. Here’s some Velcro you might use on a pair of shorts, some horsehair braid
for some formal wear, some shoulder pads and some fusible interfacing used to make buttonholes
and this some seam binding. These are all the notions that we might need for a project
that we’ve chosen from the back of the pattern.
