How's it working out for those of you who have tried it? Haven't had the chance to get any yet.

It's great, Lois. Actually better than what I was using. I was getting down to the dribs and drabs of inventory that was probably too old. The grid lines aren't of any value to me so far and I had a little trouble seeing around them at first, but others probably won't be distracted by them at all. As far as the adhesive quality, no problem!

Thanks for that Anne. It's good to know a supplier in this part of the world.

Quick question about this fusible. A friend kindly gave me some different fusible webs to try out in an attempt to drag me straight from the 19th century and into the 21st (can you tell I have been doing turned edge appliqué????) Do you ever use the Steam-a-Seam for a loveable quilt? After washing the samples I did the only fusible I found left the fabric almost like fabric was Mistyfuse and that was a bit of a pain for a novice to use being without any paper backing.
I did not quilt the samples so quilting through the fused may soften them. I tried fusibles back in the 1990ties but didn't like them then and finding it hard to like them now although I really would like to make some more intricate appliqué than is possible the way I do now. I do machine down the turned edge shapes so not a hand appliquéer.
Is this new version softer than the old?Comment

Marianne I have not use the new version yet but I will let you know what I think about it when I do. I have loved it in the past as I felt it worked much better than bondaweb to really bond the fibres properly and also the fact that it is slightly tacky means that it will stay attached to something on the design wall but is still moveable if necessary. I am so glad it's back too!
