    I have used the fusible batting for some baby quilts, wall hangings and smaller stuff. I have not tried it on anything bigger. I have access to a LA so I tend to do anything bigger then that on the LA.

    I did not like it for bed size quilts. Spray basting gave me much better results.

    I have never used it and have wondered how it would be possible to iron it on a full - queen size quilt.

    Ironing it for a full size quilt was a pain in the rear.

    I've used the Hobbs fusible on wall hangings and lap quilts. It's wonderful. Once you wash the quilt, the fusible is gone.

    I have used the Hobbs fusible batting for baby and lap quilts -- love it. Haven't tried it for anything larger.

    A word of warning -- don't iron it if it is wrinkled (ask me how I know -- LOL). It is a mess to clean up (sigh).

    I used it for a purse and I liked it . But for my large round Christmas table topper I spray basted and can say that I like it better than the fusible.

    I used it on some table runners and really liked it; also plan on using it for mug rugs.

    some people love it- some people hate it- it is a personal choice- try it out & see how you like it.
