Your presentation explained how to correctly use fusible batting. 😊 Thanks

Thank you. With Fusible you often only get the one chance.

Thank you for this video. I'm going to be using it for the first time very soon.

Take your time with the fusing process and you will do great. Good luck.

Are the wrinkles in the batting a problem? Do they smooth out easily?

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

If you try not to rush, you will be fine. you could always use pins on the edge to gently pull out the wrinkles until after you fuse, but we didn't have an issue.

Can you use a Cricut Easy Press to iron it?

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

We believe so, although we have not tested it. The Cricut Easypress is essentially an iron and should work to heat the Steam-A-Seam 2.

I had a horrible experience with the exact product. My needles kept getting covered with stickiness. I just used it on a small wall hanging so I just pulled it apart and used regular batting. I followed the directions precisely so I don’t know what went wrong. I may just use the leftover batting without ironing it on small projects. I hate to waste the product or the money I spent on it.

Thank you for your comment, Cathy. We were able to find this information from the Hobbs Heirloom Website as well as a youtube video on how to use their fusible batting. "To fuse the Hobbs Heirloom Premium Fusible Batting to your fabric, set your DRY iron to the appropriate temperature for your fabric (let it get nice and hot!) and press each area of the quilt, working from the center of the project to the outer edges - it’s important that you don’t move the iron, you’re pressing NOT ironing!. It’s also important that you use a dry iron, no steam - the fusing medium is water-soluble and if you get this batting wet, it won’t stick!" kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqfRp6asltFgjrc We have also noticed that we get a sticky needle when we have not fused the batting fully. We hope this helps you in the future!
