Has anyone ever used this product or seen it on sale in the UK? It looks really good. Kim

Hi Kim,

Couldn't you run two strips of tape, one hook and one loop, through your machine and zigzag together?

Good video - shame she can't use a sewing machine though. You would have thought she might have sewn it straight for the sales pitch. I think all these tapes have merit but don't you think they deplete your skills a little? It really doesn't take long to machine your hook and loop tape onto a band of scrap face fabric or even lining material which then is easy to bind the edges of your valance or swag with and I suspect much cheaper. These premium velcro products sell for frightening prices. You may have noticed or you may not but she wasn't making a swagged valance. A swagged valance is something completely different.
