MicroStitch Tagging Gun Kit – Includes 1 Needle, 540 Black Fasteners & 540 White Fasteners (Starter Kit)

So far my favorite use for this is something I saw on another review; its awesome for keeping the end of the duvet inside its cover without slipping. I previously sewed loops and ties on the duvets and the covers.....this is WAY better. Im sure I will find many other uses for it (perhaps to create Austrian Shades from regular curtains! Im excited to think about ways to use it. Ive only had it a couple weeks but I LOVE it!!

This lives up to all the social media hype. Has saved the day twice on wrap tops that like to never stay closed. And I even used it to connect two drapery panels that I use as a decorative shower curtain.

I simply ADORE this. So much so that I purchased 2 more, so I always have one on hand. I initially purchased it as a means of pairing my familys socks prior to putting them into the wash (I was spending WAY too much time matching socks!), and it works pretty well for this purpose. The attachments are small enough not to become entangled with each other in the washer or dryer. They arent big enough, however, to use on socks with a chunky, loose knit. Ive used the Micro stitch on fabric, thin high-quality leather, paper, cardboard, and probably some other things that Im forgetting. I would definitely not consider this a permanent attachment method, but it is just perfect for things that you want to stick together for a while & then be able to separate. I should mention that it is quite sharp, so I would not recommend letting children use this on their own - it is really easy to poke a finger whilst holding together the items you are trying to attach.

This tool has saved me so much time and aggravation. I love that it is so easy to use, is barely visible, and doesn’t cause any holes or flaws in the fabric. It’s AWESOME!!

I love this little gadget. It works so well as a quick fix for anything that just needs a couple of stitches.

If you frequently find yourself trying to safety pin your “too low-cut for work” v-neck top or dress, then the micro stitch is for you! This purchase literally changed my life! I’ve ruined so many tops after trying to safety pin the delicate fabric and twisting the pin so it’s hidden. I’ve also run into hard times safety pinning myself into a wrap-top romper because the little snaps always fall off - it was always a nightmare trying to repin my romper after a few glasses of wine. I love this so much. I never have to worry about wardrobe malfunctions and flying safety pins anymore! It’s quick, easy to use, provides a more flexible and almost invisible hold, doesn’t damage my clothes, AND I don’t have to worry about getting poked by a rebel pin. There are only two things about this product I would change: 1. It would be nice to have clear plastic stitches, 2. I wish there were stitches that were slightly stretchy so I could get more wear out of them.

Its not a nail gun, not a stapler gun, not even a tag gun. Its a rather delicate thing so if you use it as a gun it will not last long. Its decently manufactured so if you treat it gently like sewing machines it will be fine. The tags are exactly like those used in attaching labels to clothes nowadays. But this is a short proper letter I shaped plastic tag, with the top bar and bottom bar. The height of the character is 4mm as specified. The stitch is basically a hollow needle that go through the fabric. The top of the I is bent in the same direction of the I body so both of them slide through the hollow needle into the other the side of the fabric. When the trigger is released, the top of the T reverts to its natural orientation. So the layers of fabric is sandwiched between the top and bottom of the I tag. Being hollow, sharp and thin, the needle is rather delicate. Indeed I bent the tip a bit when I tried to stitch into my leather crouch with something harder inside. But it still works. Its not a power tool. You have to push the needle through and through into the fabric yourself. Theres no point to shoot the tag through. You can actually squeeze the trigger slowly and gently, and the tag will slide through. What it is good for? Ideally the total thickness of the fabric or thing to be stitched is 4mm. In this case the material have to be able to compress a little to let the top of I to return to its orientation. (You dont need to aware of how the stitcher does this.) If you stitch thin materials, a reviewer said that you have the option of pushing the needle through the fabric and then back up, like using a sewing needle. This single stitch can be about 4mm long. The tag isnt stronger than sewing. Its different. For sewing the force is distributed along the stitches. A single tag alone doesnt survive tearing apart the fabric by hand. The strength depends on how many tags you apply and the strength and density of the fabric itself. If you are stitching thick materials, they cannot be too dense. The needle have to be able to go through it. The needle is a bit thick compared to simple sewing needles, so it is harder to go through thick materials. The cushion cover and armrest of my leather crouch have long degenerated. Otherwise its a perfect piece to sit on, and now becoming an semi-antique due to old age. The cushion is square and over 8 deep. By square I mean every face is rectangular. The problem is that it does not have 6 faces, but more like half of a T viewed from the top. The leather is hard to match, real or fake. Even if matching is not required (by wife), I dont see how I can find a custom made cushion cover or the whole cushion. I have been considering the options over the years, including buying a sewing machine and made a cover ourselves. But so many things can go wrong and it probably wont turn up nicely, at least for the 1st trials. When my wife was browsing online for crouches over $1,000, I know its time for action. First, I got the idea from the web of using a wooden board at the under side of the cushion, and use a stapler gun to mount leather onto it, with the cushion in between. Then I think this one might work by stitching leather to leather and get rid of the board. I was thinking of making a temporary cushion cover but without sewing and measuring. When this guy arrived, I went to the nearest fabric store to get myself some faux leather fabric. Its more common than you think. I went to the store where you can get milk and motor oil at the same checkout! I would have ordered from Amazon but Im not sure how the color will turn out. Matching is out of the question. So I designed a two tone leather crouch, one tone fake, and one tone real. When I got everything together, I knew what to do. I gifted wrap the cushion with the faux leather and used the micro stitch to hold it together. I discovered that a tight wrap doesnt work. That will be easier with staple gun and wood board. A loose wrap turns out nicely. Most of the cushion is a rectangular block so its easy. The stitches are mostly at the hidden areas. When its difficult to hide the stitches, I leave fold lines at the visible area and bring the stitches under the cushion. The little bit sticking out of the rectangular block is a nightmare. Otherwise I would have finished in 5 minutes. Somehow I ended up with diagonal fold lines around that little bit. It was a proof of concept model and it turned out to be working so far. It looked OK, as compared to severely weathered leather and exposed naked cushion. I applied few stitches but the whole thing survived several days of sitting on, both adults and kids. Although its loose fit with some fold lines at the side, it looked like soft leather at a few feet away. The two tone isnt too bad. But if I can find better matching, I will replace it at $7 a yard and 5 minutes of work. The problem is when you drop yourself on the cushion at some height, the cushion cover will turn into a balloon and blow air into the weakest link, or tags. So far Im sure some tags are dislodged, but I have yet to repair my creation.

Only works on thin garments, if you want to secure any garment thats remotely thick then forget about it. Youll also end up with small holes in your clothes. The other con is you will have to constantly have to buy the plastic stitches. Doesnt even work to put tags back on clothes as the stitches it comes with are too small & the tags fall right off.

This product is very helpful for clothes that fit but are slightly too big or too long. I broke it after the second use. Ill probably purshcase another one though.

I am a skilled sewer (personally own 3 sewing machines) so one would think Id have no use for this product...wrong! Ive had it 1 day and am already wondering how I did without it. For quick jobs that only require a stitch or 2 it is way faster than threading a needle. Plus it anchors better than a knot in lose woven fabrics. I was honestly surprised by the ease of use as well as how undetectable they are. You really have to look close to realize that its not thread. For those of you wondering what it is exactly (as I was), its the same as a tagging gun except that the little pieces of plastic are tiny. ***Quick tip...if you are working with a light weight fabric and want the stitch to hold tighter, take the needle back through the fabric on the same side you entered (think of pinching the fabric and poking the needle through both plies) then squeeze the trigger to send the tack through.
