I learned the hard way that if you leave masking tape on longer than a painter would, the glue sort of cures and becomes harder to get off than glue that's meant to be permanent. Fortunately, I learned it by taping a poster to a glass window for a few days, so a razor blade took it off. Sticky-note tape (used to be called "repositionable correction tape"; now that typewriters are obsolete, they call it "cover-up tape") probably wouldn't leave a visible residue, but I wouldn't use it on anything that wasn't intended to be washed. I haven't noticed stains on my sewing patterns, altered with sticky-note tape, but I don't care about stains on the patterns and haven't been looking. -- Joy Beeson http://roughsewing.home.comcast.net/ http://home.comcast.net/~debeeson/DaveCam/ west of Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A. where it's a lovely fall day. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
