Transfer sheets that can be pressed
Hello everyone,
I am trying to piece together a LeMoyne Star (8 point star), and realized I needed to carefully mark the sewing lines on each piece. I purchased Sulky's Sticki Fabri Solvy and was pleased with the initial results printing and attaching the shapes to my fabric.
However, as I'm sure you more experienced piecers already know, FabriSolvy does not like to be pressed. After I sewed the first two pieces together and took it to the ironing board to press, disaster resulted. I think the Sticki Fabri Solvy started to melt. Anyway, both the fabric and the transfer paper curled up on the edges and can't be used.
Does anyone have a favorite way of marking sewing lines on multiple pieces of relatively small fabric that can also be pressed? The idea behind the transfer papers is so good, I can't help but think there's something I'm missing.
Thanks so much for any suggestions!
