Hallowe'en wall hanging for work. Luckily, the kids won't notice that the applique aren't sewn on...my machine just refused to sew through the fusible that I used, for some reason!

Love the wall hanging. Would you share the name of the pattern?

As to sewing through the fusible...I am guessing you might have used Steam-A-Seam or it's equivalent. It is only a fusible and it says on the package, something to this effect...Not recommended for sewing. There's a Steam-A-Seam Lite that you can sew. Of course, my friend used what was supposed to be a sew friendly fusible with a batik and couldn't sew it. The combination of batik and sew-friendly fusible just didn't work. She finally just gave up after trying every different needle and thread combination she could come up with. That's one quilt that won't ever get washed. :)

The name of the pattern is Little Monsters on Craftsy.

What fusible IS OK for sewing? I have used Steam a Seam 2 on another wall hanging and it sewed perfectly when I quilted it. I guess I just got lucky. And, I even used filament!

The best for cotton to me is the fusible light version. I have had to use a denim needle on the other heavy version and still had the popping noise and skipped stitches.

osewme 09-17-2016 09:21 AM

That's a fun wall hanging & the kids will love it.

Watson 09-17-2016 10:40 AM

I was just at the fabric store (surprise) and looked at the package and Steam a Seam 2 says on the package that it will sew without gumming up your needle! Hmmm.
I bought the Lite version, so I'll give it a try, because I have a new wall hanging in mind and definitely need a fusible for it.

He is my own little monster.

His nickname at the barn is "Monster Boy".

That should have been fine. It may have been the combination of your batiks and the fusible.

Those monsters are just to adorable.

lynnie 09-17-2016 07:38 PM

I love Halloween quilts, this one is especially neat.

Yooper32 09-18-2016 06:52 AM

Heat N Bond Lite is all I ever use. That is after the first time I tried to use this brand and it was not LITE..Oh, what a MESS. You only mess up like this one time.

brandeesmom 09-18-2016 02:19 PM

How cute! My grandson would love this!
