    Default Bosal In-R-Foam Double Sided

    Someone gave me a bolt of this stuff and I am at a loss as to what to make it with it. I see mixed reviews about using it for bags, what else can be done with it? Or should I just find another home for it?

    Personally, I am not a fan, but it can be used for bags that don't have an quilting. I made one a few years ago and liked how it turned out, but I prefer either the no fusible Bosol or the Bosol with only one fusible side. Here's a picture of the bag that I made.

    Bags, purses and placemats/ table runners. I think it would also work well for the little hangings that go on decorative table stands. It might also work for slippers. How about covers for your machines?

    If you decide to use it, remember to press with your iron. Do not move the iron around. It can really distort the fabric. Ask me how I know. Grrrrr!

    I made a big tall basket using it. It holds it's shape and stands upright.

    That product is quite pricey here, if I was gifted it, I would be thrilled I have only used it in tote bags, they keep their shape perfectly. Hope you find a good use for it.
