Sewing Kit Starter
what is this thing in my sewing kit?
i bought a starter kit from Wal-Mart for sewing....what is the pizza cutter looking thingy for?
Lots of answers.... It appears to be a tracing wheel.
When using patterns, the darts ( where you take up fabric for fitting) is marked on the pattern piece for the bodice (the top of the garment) or other fitting place. I.e. for the breast fitting. (we know we aren't all the same don't we?)-- To transfer the marks exactly, you would put a piece of folded tracing paper between the two pieces of fabric and using the wheel, go over the marks on the paper pattern thereby transferring the marks to the fabric for sewing. There are very specific instructions on the instruction sheet inside the pattern-- with pictures! I always have to check!
good luck
