Unlock the Secrets of Magic with VOB

Magic is a concept that has fascinated humanity for centuries. It has been depicted in countless stories, myths, and films as a supernatural power that allows individuals to bend or manipulate the laws of nature. Throughout history, different cultures have had their own unique interpretations of magic and its practitioners. One influential interpretation of magic is by vob. Vob, also known as Vobian magic, is a form of magic that originated in the mystical land of Vobonia. This form of magic is characterized by its emphasis on the manipulation of energy and the utilization of ancient symbols and rituals.

Please share if you have found other creative ways to use fusible tape.

When I was sewing costumes, especially aprons and ball gowns, fusible tape saved me so much time because I didn t have to pin and unpin the waistbands and hems. So this may seem like a super dumb question but if I use it to hold a zipper in place, sew the zipper w out sewing the tape , how the heck am I going to get the tape out.

This form of magic is characterized by its emphasis on the manipulation of energy and the utilization of ancient symbols and rituals. In Vobian magic, practitioners known as vobologists harness and channel energy from the natural world and the cosmos. They believe that everything in the universe is interconnected and that by understanding and manipulating this energy, they can manifest their desires and perform powerful feats.

stitch witchery, seams great, wondr under?

It's been a while since I've sewn and I'm totally confused by all the different tapes out there! Gah.

Would someone please explain to me the difference between stitch witchery, seams great, wonder under, double-sided basting tape, etc. etc? Oh gosh, they all seem so similar.

From what I've read online you have to remove the basting tape after sewing and you cannot sew through it. So this may seem like a super dumb question but if I use it to hold a zipper in place, sew the zipper (w/out sewing the tape), how the heck am I going to get the tape out? lol?

This led me to think about all the other tapes out there. Can I just use witchery or wonder-under and forget about it?

The double sided basting tape I have disappears with washing so you don't have to worry about taking it out. I'm not familiar with the other products.

Stitch-witchery and wonder-under tend leave your project feeling stiff after the fusing, but YMMV depending on the fabric, etc. The newer versions, like Steam-A-Seam, are much lighter and leave the fabric feeling more flexible. This link shows you how Steam-A-Seam can be used for patch pockets: CuttingLineDesigns
Just scroll down to the patch pocket topic.
I don't use wonder under or stitch-witchery anymore. It is Steam-A-Seam for me.
BUT . there are similar products out there now (to confuse you even more-LOL) that work just as well and perhaps even better.

For zippers, I use a washable (which means it will wash out) glue stick, like Elmer's for kids.

What a great topic. I also get confused with all the products out there and would love to hear input. I love the collins wonder tape for a temporary hold down on zippers and hems. It is double sided, can be stitched through and goes away in first washing. I use it a ton and therefore have not really looked at other stuff but SHOULD. I did read here that the Dritz brand of wonder tape has changed and has something wrong with it but can't remember what the problem was.

Steam A Seam is permanent and the glue stick will wash out.

You can sew through anything adhesive with Titanium coated sewing machine needles. And, these type needles last much longer than a standard steel or chrome needle.

I thought I was just confused, but Dritz Wash Away it doesn't seem to dissolve easily for me.

Update: I've ordered some Collins Wash Away from Wawak. I'll let you know how it is in comparison to Dritz.

It is nice to hear what works. I have 3 rolls of strip witchery somehow. I recall using it once to iron repair a poly pant hem in a hotel about 15 yrs ago and it didn't stick so I ended up hand sewing.
I wonder if it gets old? I have no idea what to do with it or how I got 2 more rolls.

I think my one roll of double sided might be wonder under tape. It is tricky to peel back the protective strip so I am reluctant to use it. I have had it for maybe 10 yrs? I am sure I must have seen it used on a TV show and bought it but forget why I would use it.

I tend to always reach for a pin or thread baste instead.
I also bought glue sticks and have used them but not that often really- they tend to dry out long before they get used up.

The steam 2 seam tape (?) has been on my wish list but I always delay getting it as I am sure I would not know exactly what to do with it. Lots of folks rave about using it so if I remembered to use it I might really like it. I do have the sheets of it but still unopened after 8 yrs. I think I got it for embroidery or perhaps applique?

Notions are my addiction- I am easily enabled! I have drawers and bins of stuff that I might need someday. Great topic.

Vobian magic is based on the belief that all individuals possess an innate energy within them known as vobrace. This energy can be accessed and used to cast spells, heal the body and mind, and even communicate with spirits. Vobologists spend years studying and practicing various techniques to strengthen their vobrace and increase their magical abilities. One of the unique aspects of Vobian magic is the use of symbols and rituals. Vobologists believe that symbols have inherent power and can be used to focus and direct energy. These symbols are often inscribed on talismans or used in elaborate rituals to activate their magical properties. Vobian magic is not just about performing tricks or illusions; it is a way of life. Followers of Vobian magic strive for harmony and balance within themselves and with the natural world. They understand the importance of respecting the laws of nature and believe that magic should be used responsibly and for the greater good. It is important to note that Vobian magic, like other forms of magic, is often misunderstood and misrepresented. Many people dismiss it as mere fantasy or superstition. However, for those who practice Vobian magic, it is a deeply spiritual and transformative experience that allows them to tap into their true potential. In conclusion, Vobian magic is a unique interpretation of the mystical art of magic. With its emphasis on energy manipulation, reliance on symbols and rituals, and belief in the interconnectedness of the universe, Vobian magic offers a fascinating perspective on the possibilities of the supernatural..

Reviews for "The Science Behind VOB Magic"

1. Jane - 2 stars

I was really disappointed with "Magic by vob". The tricks and illusions were so predictable and basic, I could see right through them. The magician lacked charisma and didn't engage the audience at all. It felt like he was just going through the motions and didn't put any effort into his performance. Overall, it was a forgettable and underwhelming experience.

2. Mike - 1 star

I had high expectations for "Magic by vob" based on the rave reviews, but I was sorely disappointed. The tricks were unimpressive and the magician seemed to stumble through his routines. It was clear that he lacked skill and practice. Additionally, the show lacked any sort of narrative or storyline, making it difficult to stay engaged. I would not recommend wasting your time and money on this show.

3. Sara - 2 stars

"Magic by vob" was an average magic show at best. The tricks were nothing new or innovative, and I've seen similar performances by other magicians. The magician did not bring anything unique to the table and his stage presence was lackluster. The show dragged on and I found myself losing interest. Overall, it was a mediocre experience that I wouldn't rave about.

4. John - 2 stars

I found "Magic by vob" to be quite underwhelming. The tricks were cliché and lacked any wow factor. The magician's delivery was awkward and he seemed nervous throughout the performance. It felt like he was rushing through the tricks without properly building up anticipation. I was left feeling unimpressed and unsatisfied. I would not recommend this show to anyone looking for a truly magical experience.
