for the slippery fabrics you will want to iron a fusable lightweight woven interfacing to the wrong side. this keeps the fabrics from stretching and sliding all over the place while you are working with them places like fabric.com has a large variety of 100% cotton velvets, and other specialty fabrics, you do not have to use stretchy ones but it is do-able if the ones you love are stretchy.
