Lapel Stick is a temporary non-toxic fabric adhesive. After reading the packaging and materials that were shipped along with this product, I was a little skeptical. I always am when things seem too good to be true. This product claims that it will hold but won't stain, isn't toxic and will wash away completely. I figured that at least one of those claims had to be exaggerated. I was wrong. It really worked just like it claimed it would!

Our Thanks to Quilters, Sewers, and Crafters:

14 Mar 2011

Deciding to launch a new product was a major decision, deciding to launch that product during tough economic times was a major decision with an added risk. However, the potential to bring a new product to market that could solve many everyday challenges was an incredible opportunity so we carefully analyzed out target markets, our price point, our goals, the potential demand for the product and started to build a team of talented individuals that could turn that opportunity into a reality.

Quilting with Lapel Stick

Piping along the Border

Lapel Stick and Quilting

Submitted by: Barb Round

Piping is not something anyone ever taught me to do – it has been trial and error, with several episodes of tearing out because of slippage along the seam line resulting in sloppy piping. I just got my best result ever on a very tiny piping in a quilt border seam, by using Lapel Stick.

Apparel Challenge

We've all experienced an apparel challenge of one form or another. From curled up golf shirt collars, to loose hems or the dreaded pant cuff 'winging out'. Unless we had a needle and thread or a pin handy, we were out of luck. 

Late Show with Craig Ferguson

Picture 11.jpgAs you will see from this segment of the Late Show with Craig Ferguson he could really use a Lapel Stick. Although, if he had one we wouldn't have this comedic segment.

Have a look...

An Idea is Born

23 Dec 2009

As long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to turn down my lapels on my shirts. Being a golfer, I sought out other golfers who faced the same challenge. Little did I know how this pursuit would lead me down many new and exciting paths. Every time I went to play golf my wife would ask me why I couldn’t turn down my lapels and why they wouldn’t stay down. I had no answer but we always referred to it as the ‘nerdy flip-up’ look.
