FRAY BLOCK, not fray check is what you need.
|
I buy FRAY CHECK in our local Wal-Mart store, and Joanna sells it also....carful, it will stain if you use too much, and iron the fabric while the FRAY CHECK is still wet

And they have a spray! Who knew?? http://www.amazon.com/Sullivans-10-1...75CWMG7D5KEBC8

I have a couple of bottles of Fray Check. Now I will get some of this Fray Block. Thanks ladies for the tip. When I do my "art" wall hangings I do a lot of raw edge work. And I usually don't put anything on it because it is seldom washed. To remove the dust, I slip it on the dryer on the air cycle to remove the dust.

Fray Block is one you might want to try. It dries soft, whereas Fray Check dries hard. Fray Block comes in two forms -- tube or brush-on (like nail polish). Here is a link to the brush on type onAmazon: http://www.amazon.com/June-Tailor-JT...rds=fray+block |
I use Fray Check as I see others like it too. It is a little stiff, but it goes through the washer and dryer over and over without any issues. Also, as a side note, if someone who reads this, (and nobody ever reads mine, haha) if you are having trouble threading your machine, a little fray check on your index finger, run about two inches of thread through your closed thumb and finger and walla! Magic.

I have never heard of Fray Block, but will get some. The Fray Check I have used and it has dried stiff messing up some blocks, but it washes without discoloring anything. Thanks.
|
I have on occasion used Fray Check, works well.
|
I use Fray Block and it works great--I've used Fray Check also and at classes have been told that a quick press will soften it--don't know if you have to do that anymore.
|
I use Fray Check sometimes. It has never dried hard for me- always soft.
