Lisa, try the wax paper technique. He said stitch with it on top of your seam and tear it away. I got that from a costume person. I would love to know if it works...

You don't need a special needle to sew with this. I have actually used this on the serger. Just have to go a bit slower than usual.
I use regular Schmetz needles in a size 90.You can get those at wal-mart. Same one I use for my other fabrics. I use a Brother SE-350 machine (got it at wal-mart). I think the glue used in the kind I carry is a lot better grade than the wal-mart kind which makes it a bit more expensive. I make the cheer bows from this and have to sew to ribbon and never had any problems.
Hope this helps
Nancy
