I have sent an email to you with my info THANK YOU.<br /><br />The tip about sizing on commercial fabric was very helpful. I have had problems before when I have not laundered fat quarters. And I love using the sharpie on the release paper to the back of the fused piece.<br /><br />I look forward to future blogs and pics and entries about your inpiration and work - and of course George.<br /><br />Phyllissewmuch2dohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892704203283187616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611779285881826866.post-37005116169757019822011-09-28T08:05:54.620-05:002011-09-28T08:05:54.620-05:00Nice tutorial, and even *nicer* picture of George....Nice tutorial, and even *nicer* picture of George.

Are you sure you were using it and not Heat and Bond which does all the things that described. <br />If your needle was skipping then you were using the wrong needle. I always use a sharp shank needle, either a quilting needle, embroidery needle or microtex needle or top stitching needle when I quilt on wonderunder.<br />WonderUnder #805 is the light, actually the REGULAR version. <br />But hey if you are happy with Steam A Seam lite go for it. I think it works well too.Frieda Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06110678234987761607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611779285881826866.post-46371498368917925492011-09-27T14:42:16.283-05:002011-09-27T14:42:16.283-05:00When I first tried a fusible project, I tried Wond...When I first tried a fusible project, I tried Wonder Under, but had issues with trying to sew it. So then I tried Wonder Under Lite, and both of my machines skip stitches constantly. Yet I hear you and other fusible quilters say that they love Wonder Under. The only thing that I've tried that was light enough not to cause issues is Lite Steam A Seam 2. Is the 805 Wonder Under different than the two that I used, and if not, do you have any ideas about what caused my issues??

So many times quilters don't understand the sizing in the fabrics can cause problems. Glad to hear you encouraged washing of the fabrics. Advantage of the us of the hand dyed fabrics you made clear alos. Will be staying tuned to next segment. ChrisSewing Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16848603221577664193noreply@blogger.com
