Janstar, fusible thread looks just like regular thread, but when you iron it the seam that is sewn with it fuses to the fabric. IIRC, it runs about $10/spool, but Joanns has their quilting notions 50% off this weekend (plus a 10% off whole order coupon) and Hancock's has their notions 50% off on Monday.
