    Hi there, Am I right in thinking with this quick fuse you donīt have to do a button hole stitching or satin stitch around the blocks. it just kinda fuses the fabric together :?

    Got the quilt fuse, now I just need to find time with all the other WIPs I have going now.
    Morning Terri, Is quilt fuse the same stuff as what Cathy sent over to me, a fusible webbing which Cathy showed me how to place all the pieces on, fuse then stitch by folding over on the seams???

    I'm thinking it's the same.
    You put your squares on it, iron it down, then fold and stitch.
    You can read about it here

    Oh wow Terri that sounds great stuff. Have got an idea for a middle section to start of my next quilt idea. Well it could be the 200th one buzzing around in my brain, but will have a dabble first with this amazing fusing.

    Thanks for your help. :D

    Not a problem!
    Once I finish up the ones I have going, I'm going to TRY the one I have.
    Will most likely do a "test" first so I can make sure I kinda know what I'm doing.

    Terri you are sooo funny.... I am telling you... this fusing stuff is just like making rice krispie treats. You're going to have to lie to your family on how hard it is.
