Basting and stay tapes are small but mighty essentials that make a big difference to the finish of your sewing projects. Whether you're positioning tricky elements or stabilising seams, these handy tapes help you achieve cleaner, more professional results with ease.
Our range includes double-sided basting tapes that are perfect for holding zips, hems, appliqué and trims in place before stitching. Many options can be sewn through without gumming up your needle, and wash-away tapes disappear after the first wash, making them ideal for temporary positioning and precision work.
You'll also find stay tapes and seam tapes designed to stabilise and support key areas of your garments. These are ideal for preventing stretching in necklines, shoulder seams, waistlines and curved edges, helping your finished makes keep their shape without adding bulk. Fusible options are quick and easy to apply, while lightweight tapes work beautifully on delicate or stretchy fabrics.
With trusted brands including Prym, Clover, Dritz and Vlieseline (Vilene), this collection covers everything from adhesive fixing tapes to interfacing-style seam tapes for dressmaking and tailoring.
If you're building a well-stocked sewing toolkit or looking to improve the finish of your garments, these tapes are a simple upgrade that can transform your results.
