Lol. I don.t know about the pro bit but.i do love my sparkle lol. I.m actually sitting handsewing my dress for to.nite!! I.ve broken two packs of needles on this fabric so I.ve gave up. This fabric was ten times worse than the gold fishscale. Smaller sequins bigger.nightmare..i.just hope it dos.nt give me a whoops moment and come apart while.i.m out lol x

So, did you remove the sequins in the seam allowance or just work around them?

I know you are supposed to remove them but it’s fine just sew through.
