Any tips on sewing spandex? Material is pretty slippery and hard to manage.

These are great instructions, and I hope to use them someday. Thanks! It’s too bad it is so involved a process…. it’s quite fast to use Gerber or Lectra to digitize patterns, although I don’t think they can be saved as PDFs.
