Does it work well with stretchy fabrics?

The machine works well, the real question is 'do you work well with stretch fabrics?'...

It does stretch. I used it to replace a 'sock' for a tower speaker. Not sure about 'double knit' though. It is a good fabric

Yes it does stretch with time from washing and wear. Not sure if the med one could work might be tight. Hope this might help a bit.

It works great on cotton! I avoid nylon because I heat set with an iron after drying.

It is a very stretchy fabric and should work for most unless your arms are extremely small.

It doesn't have a whole lot of stretch. I've got a quad cab truck and it was too small for this application. I guess it depends the size of your vehicle, but make sure it is a bit smaller than the dimensions of the fabric

Nope it won't stretch, but it is a rough texture so I'd compare it to doing push ups on concrete.

I have only used it with quilting cotton fabrics. I think it will work well on any weight cotton but silky fabrics may be a problem.

I have used it on fleece sweatshirts and tshirts, with a commercial heat press, and after a few washes, it does crack some without a lot of stretching so I would predict that it will crack on a stretchy material fairly quickly.

I haven't tried it but if you get the product Terial Magic and use that to stiffen the fabric before cutting, it should work. I've been using that stiffener for felt and cotton and it works great.

It should, just wedge it in and wind it to the stretch you need. If it's leather could I suggest using a stretch spray to pretreat the leather?

I didn't find that to be the case. I used it on sunbrella fabric and it worked well.

I think that it really depends on what kind of fabric. I love this tape but when you use it to stick fabric to fabric, sometimes it doesn't hold as well as you would like. I tried to use it temporarily for a pair of pants that needed to be rehemmed and it didn't hold as well as certain fabrics.

I found that it works fairly well! You have to let some stubborn stains and different fabrics sit a little longer or require a 2nd treatment.

This works on fabric. I haven't washed anything afterward, but I would think it would be fine. You can do some research online.

Yes. I actually did use it to stretch a canvas among other things. I bought it originally to re-upholster stools though. I bought 1/4 inch staples (Stanley TRA704T 1,000 Units 1/4-Inch Heavy Duty Staples) and 1/2 inch but 1/2 inch are too big for this staple gun. It's actually a very sturdy and handy staple gun. I'm still shocked at how little I paid.

Yes, you could use it on fabric. I would take into consideration the color you will be using against the color of your fabric. Have fun!
