Misty Fuse - Need Help & Tips
Two friends of mine each bought a Toni Whitney quilt kit and gave them both to ME to quilt for a very dear "sister by another mother" friend, whose birthday is mid-November. I am an intermediate quilter of 20+ years and have used the paper-backed fusible webbing for years. They want me to use Misty Fuse because it's softer. I have no idea how to use this stuff without the paper backing. Tips, anyone? [THANK YOU!]

I just finished a quilt with a LOT of MistyFuse. I don't know if it is the "right way" but this is how I did it?. I bought Reynolds parchment paper at the grocery store. That was my "paper". I traced my shapes onto the Reynolds parchment paper, then I cut Misty Fuse to the size of the paper (or smaller) and ironed it on. After that, it was just like the paper backed fusible we are used to. You may want to use an appliqué pressing sheet between your iron and the parchment paper.

My last trip to Paducah, I got to chat with several of the winners and quilt makers during different times. I was amazed that most fused their whole quit top to stabilize it before quilting and used Misty Fuse. I never thought of doing that.
