What is Hemming Tape?
Hemming tape is a kind of heat-activated adhesive tape that allows garment wearers or sewers to create a temporary, new hem. Hemming with hem tape can be achieved with little difficulty, and it allows for frequent modifications to be made because the tape is removable. It can be easily purchased in many department stores or craft stores, or it can be ordered as a specialty sewing item, if necessary. Usually, hemming tape is used as as a temporary or on-the-go hemming. It can be utilized to shorten the length of a garment without cutting or stitching. Instead, hemming tape relies on its adhesive properties to make garment modifications. The tape’s adhesive is activated and adheres against clothing when it is ironed onto the fabric.
