Need help with that project you're working on?

Not sure what kind of fabric to use?

Sewing machine troubles?

Ask away.

I'll start with my on question - I've never used any kind of stretchy material before, and now I'm making a costume that requires spandex. Not a lot of seams on it, but I don't want to fuck it up.

First question is what kind of spandex should I even use? Right now I'm looking at Milliskin and Cotton Lycra. I've read that Milliskin is what they use in swimsuits, so I assume I'd want the cotton lycra?

Second, is there a specific presser foot I should use when sewing it, or a specific type of thread? I know nothing about sewing knit fabrics like this.
