I tested a bunch of fusible webs today and it worked great no need to buy the brother only fusible web - my next test is going to be cutting some of the built in quilt blocks and create them, I also think it would be great for drawing paper pieced patterns when you need lots.... scan in one, draw a bunch....

I'm wondering how it would work on freezer paper. So that you could cut something out and then remove the freezer paper so it's not stiff.

they actually make a sticky sheet you stick to a mat to stick the fabric to so you do not have to use a fusible, I got two with my machine have not tried that yet.... going to try freezer paper too it will probably work great as well....
but I cant test til wed since I have to get to work early and get off late...

Interesting. I wonder if that sticky sheet would work with other cutting machines.

The sheet is supposed to stick directly to the mat of the machine for cutting, I am excited because I ordered some stuff for my machine Friday and I should get the stuff tommrow, the biggest thing was a scanning mat because I couldn't make it to he brother dealer near me I was working most of their hours

Maybe I'll buy one of those sticky sheets to try with my silhouette. If they aren't too expensive, that is. I want a bigger machine someday but I want one that will cut chipboard.

I was told not to use the sticky to things that would leave alot behind when you took it off; like felt. That is supposed to be stabilized but I buy my stablizier off the roll at Joanns. For things like felt you use the low tack mat and adjust your senser pressure and blade lenth. Now, the last one I did in felt, I sprayed with starch heavily and let it dry and it worked just fine. The sticky sheets are more for fabric. It comes from the dealer 4 sheets to a pack for $15, here.

You could check with the company, it cuts balsa wood and leather.

I finally got my order tonight, I got two more mats, and extra blade and the scanning mat which I wanted so I wouldn't have to stick stuff to the mat when I want to scan something in

Does anyone know if you can cut from more than one layer of fabric at a time? Though a supplier here has advertised it at over $600 so I don't think I'll need one that badly. I saw them for just over 200 not long ago - introductory price perhaps, and US wbsite. I'd probably stay with the aqu quilt, as you can cut 6 or so layers with them.
