I bought some once it was awful. I tested it on a small piece of scrap material and it was so stiff you would not want to use it on a quilt. Still have the rest of it in the closet just in case I find something I can use it on.

I used the 'Fusi-Boo" by Fairfield on a small wall-hanging. It made the piece rather stiff, wouldn't like to use it for a larger quilt, but was easy to handle for machine quilting. The stiffness washed out when I was finished. I have a (double-bed size) quilt fused with Hobb's 80/20 fusible that I haven't started to quilt yet, but I think I'm going to have to pin at least the edges since it really hasn't stood up to handling very well and I'm doubtful about all the manipulation it will need for machine quilting. A friend used the June Taylor fusible batting for a table-runner and it just tore apart when she tried to reposition it.

Hello
Also using batting we use in our Cotton Theory projects works great too. You can steam press the pieces together and still pull them apart and repress. This batting works great and can be purchased from www.quiltyard.com
The batting gives projects a lovely drape too. Happy sewing. Helen

i bought some for a Queen bed quilt (just try to iron that puppy, no fun.) plus the stuff on the back was to web-by. i ended up pulling it all off. my friend Jackie won't even use it with her long arm. Better to stick to the reg. stuff that you know will work.
