1. Warm wash and dry everything, including trims, first.
2. If you use tissue lame, back it with Touch o' Gold interfacing and be
aware that it'll wear badly even so.
3. Avoid the "bull's eye" effect, which places a central motif between your
shoulder blades and/or over each breast.
4. If you use a spray adhesive like Sulky 505, you can audition pieces
before you sew them down.
5. Enjoy yourself!
