Thought I might appliqué, quilt, then make tea-cosies etc! All suggestions welcome!! We have a Christmas present list with kids from 6months to 94 years (my Mum) to buy for, so it should be home-made for all from now-on!
A lot of fusing can tend to be stiff, so I like the option of the water soluable. You iron it on as normal and sew it down, but when you wash it the fusible dissolves and it soft like a reg. applique item.
Does that make sense?
