Best Product for Applique and Other Fusibles
These sheets remain intact; the heat goes through the sheet; they come in a cool zip-top container that you can keep the sheet in; and they are very stable even if you use a hot iron. I have two of them now. In a quilting bee or at a retreat, it is absolutely necessary that you don't get fusible on someone else's iron or ironing board. Depending on how you cut your fabric and your fusible, there may not be any excess to get anywhere, but using these sheets just makes sure. You iron the fusible to the back of the fabric, using one sheet on top and one on the bottom. You can also just fold the sheet if you only have one, and move it around as necessary to get everything fused. If there is excess fusible, the excess fusible will adhere to the sheet. You can hold the sheet up to the light and see if there is any fusible left behind. The sheet will cool down in a minute or so, and then you can take a dry washcloth and rub the excess fusible off. You have to do this before fusing...
Great item
Pressing sheet is excellent - it's a silicone type material and I do starch my fabrics before cutting - no residue left on the pressing sheet. Didn't really want to spend the $$$ but glad I did. I've used it for some time now and very pleased with my purchase!
Saves the iron
Good product, comes in handy. A must when using heat activated products. It sure saves having to clean the iron, or messing up the ironing board.
