    I just got the pattern for the Bow Tucks tote. It requires approx 2 yards of Pellon Fusing.

    Can anyone tell me if it is 44" width or 22" width?

    I would have assumed it should be 44" width, but noticed JoAnn sells this exact item in a pre-packaged size which is 22" width.

    I appreciate any feedback you have!

    Since you have the pattern, can you tell by looking at the cutting directions for the Pellon? I know that when I purchased for the Mini Bow Tucks bag, I got less than they recommended after looking at the cutting instructions.

    I haven't spent enough time reading it to figure it out yet. I don't have the pattern with me and am hoping to pick up the fusing on the way home.

    Thanks for the thought!

    Thank you for the additional advice. It did give a #, but I didn't realize its importance.

    I used the 22" width and the two yards were enough for the regular size, and I can make the mini one with just 1 yard but I measure it out very carefully and it just fits. :-)

    I really think it's the 44" that you need -- but you don't really need 2 yards. Just over a yard is plenty.
