Does all the newer fusible wash out?
I've used it for clothing. Sweatshirts and jackets. The older fusible seems to have stayed glued regardless of how many washings. It was batted down with the Pfaff version of walking foot stitching, couching, and almost any other decorative technique I felt like trying. Most of the backgrounds were plain black, so the fancy stuff didn't look that bad.
I've found a jacket pattern I like while I don't mind some quilting on it, (SITD type), I don't want it looking like I made a quilt and cut the jacket out. Nor do I think I want all the couching and other decorations. I want to see the fabric. The more air spaces you have seem to trap warmth better.
I dislike Bamboo. Cotton/Poly, cotton or poly are OK. No wool, either. Anything I make gets tossed in the wash like old work clothes. I use fabric that will work that way with NO special care. Stuff has lasted for over 20 years, so the method works.
