You could use heat resistant Mylar only a couple of quid a sheet and it will last for years.

My grandma dd similar. She used strips of heavy brown paper under both sides of seam when pressing mens pants inside out. Prevented seam lines on the outside or shiny seams. Brilliant, thanks

I learned that the correct tool was a half dowel under the fabric, but I've been using the edge of my June Tailor board to press seams without impressing the seam allowance edges. This is soooooooo much easier. I do use my board as a clapper, but, as you said, it doesn't prevent the edge impression.

I love this idea! Definitely going to give it a go. Will probably cut out a Tiny sliver of paper from the middle cut to allow room to the seam and just give the cardstock some room. Mine is super stiff and I think will require it. TFS!

Awesome..I’m making this and sharing your UA-cam as well…..thank you!!!

Just keep on making and you are going to be a UA-camr with a lot of followers. :-)

I just made one! What a genius you are :-) THANK YOU!

so cool.

Great tip thank you

Excellent tip. Thank you. 🕵️🇨🇦💕☺️👍

Thank you, that's just the kind of easy very useful hack that I can add to my sewing repertoire :) from Manitoba Canada

I don’t want to make this because I’m feeling lazy but I know I should. If I don’t make this by the time I need to press any S.A.s open again, I think I’ll be tempted to just grab a Manila folder (that what we call a regular filing folder that are placed in filing office cabinet drawers in the U.S.) and just cut it in half. Questions:) 1. Is the fabric getting shining and the indentation two different situation that can happen individually and together? 2. If they can happen individually, would I need to purchase a tiny iron like the one used in the video so the iron doesn’t go passed the paper? Or does the shiny only happen when the iron is just over two layers of fabric (public side fashion fabric layer and wrong side seam allowance)? Hope that makes sense. Btw, thanks for the video. A subscriber shared this with me and I just watched and subscribed:) But I’m mainly interested in videos that can be applied to men’s garments, men’s bags, and men’s hats:) so hopefully you’ll make those too:) Thank you:)

What a good idea! Thanks for figuring out a DYI solution and then sharing it.

Love to have this as a new tool. Can you tell me the brand of your small iron?

That is genius! The simple solution is usually the best, and the most obvious is the one that you never think of! Ignore those negative comments, they sound like they’ve never picked up a needle & thread in their lives. It is extremely obvious what your tool is for to someone who has any understanding of sewing and pressing

The question I have is what happens when fabrics are thicker than the slit? Does this let you get a crisp seam then? I've seen & used separate pieces under each side of the allowance before--but for nearly all cases this is a great idea as easier to use! But a small diameter seam roll does work too--but only if you keep the sole plate level & seam centered, the pressure is on the stitch line & the allowance is on the curve of the roll does not get the pressure from the sole plate. But this takes practice. I've even used 1" wood dowels to ensure pressure/heat is only on the seam--and a press cloth helps, too.

Thank you for showing. Easy to understand and I do it this way next time. The only thing I have to say is : The noise in the background are very irritating.I love the noise of a sewing machine, but couldn't stand the background noise ...

Brilliant! Made one and I love it!

Awesome thank you & I would also like to see you attach it to your garment, also love your tape measure bracelet

Brilliant idea thank you

Clever!

Great idea!

Brilliant idea.Thank you.

Great tip. I'm a seamstress. Totally understand.

Wow…. What a great little tool. Patton it and sell it to cover or whomever!

Can you use this for quarter inch seams

What a great idea! I can also use this for quilt blocks. Genius!

Thank you! I’d seen someone using one of these, and my search for purchasing it was unsuccessful. Now I can make my own!!

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Lovely. Super super cute.

Yah... people don't know their tools that's why the comments. This is great. My teacher thought us to lay a strip of wool between the seam and the garment. But yours is nicer

Clapper won't prevent the marks, actually it makes worse

making one right now. Thanks for the. Tip

Excellent !

Brilliant 🎉

No sound just static. Can you give measurements and what material you are using?

This is great for pressing garment seams.Thank you for showing me this. It will help when working with wool and many solids colors of fabrics. However, most of what I sew today are quilts. I'm 76 years old; and, have been sewing since I was in the Forth Grade. Because my body has changed, as I have aged, I am thinking of going back to wearing skirts instead of pants and jeans. However, I want my skirts "A" line style, eight gores (for ease in walking), and as long as my dress slacks. I have noticed that people treat me better, in public places, when I am wearing dresses or skirts and blouses.

When I took home ec classes in the seventies, we had to share one seam roll and ham between a couple pressing stations in our classroom. So, if the fabric in the seams you were pressing wasn't thin enough to flatten with the heated tip of your iron, we put a strip ( wider than the seam allowance) of heavy card stock cut from manilla file folders under each seam allowance before pressing. Manilla file folders are great for making other pressing templates from, too, like hem and pocket templates and marking templates for buttonholes, etc.

Measurements please

Thank you for sharing this great idea. I don’t understand negative people, some people are just hater’s, are not worthy of your time.

I'm 71 years old and have been sewing since I was 11. I like to think I know a lot, but this GENIUS tip is proof that there will always be something new to learn. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this. I'm excited to put it to use with my very next sewing project I'll be starting this weekend! This is also the first time I've seen your channel or videos, so I've also subscribed and look forward to seeing what other nuggets of wisdom you have to share. -Karen 🥰

Thank you so much! I had a hard time with Vogue 2025 pattern's instructions. I'd love to see you do a single side welt pocket on a dress. if possible not on the side seam, but instead on a skirt that has a side front panel. Couldn't find any tutorials on youtube. BTW you are a great teacher!

That was a great tip. Yes, I'd love to see you attach it to your garment!

I believe its pronounced Goo tterman.

Great idea, I am going to make this.

Very clever!
