Hi, First time using freezer paper. I have made 3 small houses, and already the pattern piece for small house 1 is not very sticky. T-he last time removing the pattern from the fabric, some of the pattern actually separated - with some still on the fabric. Am I using too much heat, pressing too long? and do I now begin using glue stick to hold the pattern to the fabric? Suggestions? Would it be better to use a small appliqué iron versus a household iron? TIA -
Hi Carmeng, I have found using my small cover iron very useful, easier to manage, if you have one. -
I’ve had this problem too. Is there a certain freezer paper that is better than another? Has it something to do with the iro. Heat?would love to know!Comment

Yes, I do have a Clover iron & will try it out! Thanks. Using the right tool always makes a difference!Comment

The problem may be the temperature. If the temperature is to high the wax will melt into the fabric. Try a medium temperature instead of a high temperature. You only need your iron on the freezer paper for a few seconds.Originally posted by "carmeng" post=153109
Okay to use the glue stick at any time. A little dab will do you.Comment

I started today and only got 2 made and the freezer paper was not sticky enough to make a third. I am using the paper from the Quilt Show shop. It is very thin not like grocery store freezer paper. I remember Barbara saying-she used 46 sheets and she was using her sheets over and over. I am going to try a smaller craft iron. Anyone have a brand they see working longer?Comment
