For those of us who are challenged when we sit down to a sewing machine this product is fantastic. I had to hem 2.8mt of curtains on the weekend

. Which for me is a drama- you see for some bizarre reason I can't seem to sew a straight and unpuckered line with a sewing machine. This
Super Tape is available at Spotlight. You apply as you do double sided tape- with no ironing involved. The staff at Spotlight reassure me this tape is strong enough to hold up the hem of lined curtains - so far so good

.
I hope this might help you to avoid the sewing machine too.
