Question about fold and Stitch Wreath
I've had the pattern for the fold and Stitch Wreath for a while now...it sit's in the sewing room looking at me all the time. Now the Bosal Stabilizer has arrived and I'm wondering if the stabilizer is the same as the head liner material that guys purchase from JoAnn's when redoing a car or truck. Anyone know why the headliner material wouldn't work....outside of the fact that it's not fusible? Got to be a way around that issue!!

I used heat-n-bond lite and Deco bond and had no problems. The deco bond is used a lot for making totes. It's thicker than the heat and bond. I fused the deco bond to the back fabric and the heat n bond to the other two fabrics. The deco bond gives it some weight and it layers flat. Both are at Joanns

I have the patterns for the wreaths and when I do get around to making them, I will use what is suggested atleast for the first few patterns. Only after I am comfortable will I try something else. It's like trying a recipe. Follow the original the first couple/ few times then tweak it the way you want. The stabilizer is to help with the texture/stiffness required so it doesn't collapse if you want it to stand up while displayed. Who wants a fallen down centerpiece?
