been doing this for years...if you do not use dryer sheets, you can ask others to save them OR you can go buy a lightweight interfacing and use that as well. Or really cheap walmart muslin! any foundation will work
PS dryer sheets are no more flammable than any other fabric! |
That's the way I did mine. My avatar is the 1st one I did.
|
I also use dryer sheets for applique!

when you make appliques with finished edges machine sew fabric sheets to the back - turn them and then stitch applique down.

I've started saving my dryer sheets to make a scrap quilt like the one in the picture. I have lots of scraps to use up.

I know of mixed media artist who reuse dryer sheets by melting crayons on it and spreading it out, or using inks and creating a one of a kind design. One lady has an Esty shop and sells it on there as paper creations.

My only concern using these in quilts is that these sheets have chemicals in them and they also are very flamable.
Not worth the risk to some other human being if there were to be an accident where it could catch fire. Now I have seen mixed media artist use these in various forms of papercrafting, even using crayons, inks and such to create speicality paper with it. I suppose one could use it in things like quilted purses, or wall hanging and such but don't think I'd chance it for a quilt someone would use. |
