Fusible Fleece headache....
#1
Okay, this stuff drives me crazy. I'm on my second bow tucks purse and yeah, it does get sewn it some but I REALLY wish it would stick better.
Any suggestions? I'm using the Pellon like the pattern recommended....tired of it not sticking like I think it should though.

Then I'll do this. I finished the purse with the fusible but it drove me nuts. Batting and spray sounds like a good option.
Thanks!!!!!

When you are fusing the fleece you should put it on the ironing board with the fusible side up. Then lay your fabric on it with the right side up. Press the fabric...be sure to hold your iron in each place long enough. It should fuse well enough to hold while you are quilting it.

Are you using Pellon? Did you press it long enough? 10 seconds at least. I haven't had any problems with it. Maybe you can take it back to the store and complain. Maybe you got an old batch that was damaged.
