I also prefer Steam-a-Seam 2 Lite over Head n Bond as it seems softer to me.
MistyFuse is a newer fusible web that people rave about. I'm not sure if it comes with a paper backing or not. The advantage of MistyFuse is that it is a very fine fusible that does not stiffen the fabric. If it doesn't adhere to a paper backing, though, the way that other fusibles do, it may require adjustment in how the pattern is drawn on the fabric. Maybe you draw directly on the MistyFuse after it has been fused to the fabric? I don't know. If I had more time tonight, I'd look for a Youtube or other internet video on MistyFuse.
