So not the armo plus fusible pellon, just heavyweight interfacing like decor bond?

I ask because some pictures I've seen look really 'puffy' ... moreso than I would want. I use the armo plus in my bags by Lazy-Girl Designs.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

I am retired.. had to retire out at age 50 due to pain to neck...back...shoulders... I was a food service manager for an elem school for 15 years.. all the lifting I did took a toll on my body.. now at 57,,I can't imagine working anymore.. I love being home.

just pellon fusible in different weights.
if they were the puffy look it may have been some early ones with I used regular batting and quilted them. I have not used reg. batting in a very long time, .. always fusible pellon
Thanks, any way to cut down on cost is always good! You're getting me motivated again ... Now I just need to get in there and SEW!

The sad thing is I've had the fusible batting for several Lazy Girl - Margo's cut out for several months now. I just need to cut the fabric and sew. I spend too much time on this Board plus too many days at work! LOL

Don't you just hate it when your J-O-B keeps you from sewing! :)
