I purchased my vinyl at JoAnn's ... and was quite frustrated using it. It seems to slip and slide all over everywhere. Now, that I have finished my project I discovered you can use a special foot, telfon foot that will work really great with the vinyl. I had to do another project for my hubby and I purchased the foot and it make a 100% difference. However I was using it for a much larger project, so maybe using it in smaller pieces works easier. Not sure. Here is a pic of what I used it for.
