Holds well, did gum up on needle, but easily cleaned with an alcohol wipe. Goes fast, will buy again

I use this tape to secure zippers to my hand knits. I am NOT a sewer; I actually hate sewing and have very little experience with it, but this tape makes it less aggravating. It is MUCH easier than basting with pinsand you can adjust and re-adjust your zipper placement over and over until it's perfect. If you use a nice sharp needle the gumming up issue is minimal (but I cannot attest to machine sewing). I would imagine that if I ever used it for machine knitting (hemming pants?) I would just sew above or below the tape but I've got minimal experience with sewing machines so I cannot swear to that.

I actually needed wider tape, which I discovered after I applied to the cushion I had just sewn. However, the fact that it didn't work is entirely my fault. For something like holding up a no-sew hem or seam, this tape is more than adequate.

Did the tape do what it's supposed to? Yes, absolutely. Did it gum up my needles while I was embroidering on top of the fabric I used the tape with? Yes, absolutely. And this is hand-sewing I'm talking about.I ordered two packages of the stuff, because I have a lot of projects lined up, but I sent the unopened package back, since I wouldn't dream of using it with my sewing machine needles now that I know what it does to hand-sewing needles and pins.

Like others have mentioned, this stuff can gum up your needles. With the proper needle selection and sewing speed this problem is manageable.
