    Default Stabilizer for tshirts

    Those of you who have made t-shirt quilts, what stabilizer for the shirts do you like best? I'm about to make my first of these so need opinions on the lightest weight one to use before I buy. Thanks for help.

    I use Pellon fusible 906F for sheer to lightweight fabrics. I bought a bolt of it when on sale at JAF. I use it to attach smaller pieces of batting too.

    I used the Pellon featherweight fusible too...and also bought a bolt with coupons at JoAnns. Worked great.....but be careful when you are ironing on the back of logos and decals that are "plastic" like...make sure to have something covering your ironing board.

    I used to use only Tricot (knit) fusible (stretch of tricot opposite of stretch of shirt), but I used a lightweight fusible last time and saw no difference. I always use a dry iron. Ditton on being careful around plastic-y logos. I dont' quilt thru those either.
