You can do this on smaller pieces (not too small) If you take a few more steps....carefully pink your edges after grading the seam. Also I have used this method using water soluble thread, after my piece is pressed (dry iron) I steam it....removing the thread...and the fusible material...leaving a nicely creased edge that is not heavy with fusbile stabilizer...lays much flatter....though be it a bit fussier.
