I found a couple resources that mentioned that the stiffness and added thickness of the interfacing can cause the sliders to stick and make the tie more difficult to manage. Some even suggest adding interfacing only to the bow area, tapering it into an acute triangle to end near the first part of the band.<br /><br />If your fabric is already pretty hefty, I think one side is going to be plenty stiffness. My experience, however, is that thinner materials or some that might have a bit of their own texture (i.e. seersucker) might benefit from a little more structure.LaceyAllynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07958368294744799554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252736363159072433.post-8431672690261018072013-05-04T00:03:47.017-07:002013-05-04T00:03:47.017-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.LaceyAllynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07958368294744799554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252736363159072433.post-62250281970261830692013-05-03T23:58:42.897-07:002013-05-03T23:58:42.897-07:00I'm using 3/4" sliders.

Medical clamps, (like <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000AX82T?ie=UTF8&tag=sew4-20&link_code=as3&camp=211189&creative=373489&creativeASIN=B0000AX82T" rel="nofollow">this</a> on Amazon, and not at all as scary as it sounds) can also be useful because they'll hold tight to and end and allow you to pull it through easily. Also, you can trim your seams as close to the stitch as you can to make some more room. <br /><br />Hope that helps!jlordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005416192305036438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252736363159072433.post-16442366104449812852013-01-09T04:22:55.505-08:002013-01-09T04:22:55.505-08:00Thank you so much.
