I thought about it for an entire evening and came up with this. I normally fuse the interfacing to the white fabric before I apply the fusible web. As I hadn't remembered to do it this time, I tried something new.
Ah-ha,
but before I could do that I had to find the interfacing. I keep it all in one bag, hanging on a hook in the sewing room. I didn't have what I wanted!!! I used a heavier weight cause darned if I was going to leave it, troop out to the store (which is in another town), come home and get back to work.
Here we go, step by step with photos.
I laid my applique pressing sheet on the ironing board, then the interfacing with the sticky side DOWN!! I peeled the paper off the pieces and laid them on the interfacing. I fused them together with my iron
I trimmed away the excess intefacing. Then I took everything to the light table where the top and the pattern were waiting for me.
I laid everything out and because my light table is glass, I gave them a soft press with my iron. Just enough to hold til I got to the ironing board. There I gave them a good pressing. See.........
I wiggled it in the air to see if the interfacing was pressed enough. I was sure it was, but I gave it another one from the front and then turned it over and pressed well from the back.
Tomorrow.................a product review.
