I've used that on a couple of t-shirt quilts because that is what I could find at the local Walmart. But I much prefer Pellon 911--the 906F needs a lower temp on the iron, which makes it good for use on synthetics, but since most t-shirts I get are 100% cotton it means I have to increase the heat and use a pressing cloth (suggested in directions) to prevent the fusable from pressing through the webbing and make a total mess. I don't have that problem with the 911.
