I bought a bolt of pellon val-u-fuse last year and have never used it...I am now wondering how to use it. I am assuming it is for applique. I have tried googling it...so far no luck. pellon val-u-fuse its 100 percent polyester - has anyone used this? I bought it at Joann's

Is there some sort of plastic separator wrapped in the bolt between the layers?
My fusible stuff has that and there are directions on the plastic.

There is usually directions in the folds...

I just openned it. and No instructions. That is weird.

Hmmm...that is odd.
Is it fusable interfacing or the double sided sticky stuff for applique? Does it have a paper side to it?

there is no paper. one side seems a little ruffer than tha other side.

I think you have fusible interfacing. Only one side will stick to the fabric when you iron it on. It's used mostly in making clothes-collars, waist bands, areas that need a little extra stiffness.

There is a method to use it for applique-Sun Bonnet Sue Quilt in a Day book has detailed instructions.

Thank-you!!! I have that book some where in my stash...off to go look for it.

Pelion has a website with instruction how to use their products.

I found the book, I did not know you could sew the fusing on and them turn in inside out than iron it on....no raw edges, AWESOME!

I think I found it on their website.44F For light to midweight fabrics; adds gentle support for blouses, dresses and shirts. the instructions say coming soon....I wonder if this can be used for applique?

Thats the way I like to do applique. Think I learned it that way from Elenore.

Sounds like the same stuff I use in purses and tote bags.

I hope you are still receiving posts from this site. I bought the same thing from Joann's some time ago, I think it was a black Friday shopping special. All it says is JAS VAL-U-FUSE 44FPKG10 by Pellon. Did you ever find instructions? I think I bought mine for making a T-shirt quilt, just call me forgetful. I looked on the Pellon site and could find nothing for 44F. Can you help?

I was doing a bit more research on this interfacing and found that this person uses it for Quilting. To help when putting the quilt together. http://www.minneapolismqg.com/2012/0...y-puckers.html

Another person uses this interfacing to put batting pieces together...just iron it on

Me too. For the little bit of applique I do, this is the only way for me.

I did not know that you could iron it on to the fabric and then turn it to make "no raw edge" applique either. You have just saved me hours of work. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

This is what I was going to suggest. I have used pieces of iron on interfacing to join batting pieces together instead of buying the expensive batting tape. I just bought some more yesterday for the purpose of using up all those leftover batting pieces
