Favorite Applique Product?
#12
I was a dedicated Wonder Under user until I took a class and the instructor had little kits with Heat 'n Bond lite. I don't think it's any softer but the edges of the applique are bonded better and you get a whole lot less edge fraying.

I've no idea what 'handler' is either, but then again, there's several products we name differently (e.g. wadding=batting), lol.
I like this better for machine appliqué than Steam a Seam Lite, which builds up gluey gunge on your needle.

Handler is Handler Fusible Trans-Web. It's a paper backed fusible web.

They make interfacings and stabilizers as well.

I'm a big appliqué quilter and started out withWonder Under but now use Heat and Bond. There is a lightweight and heavyweight. I have found though especially with Wonder Under if you buy on sale it doesn't stay for several months as it loses its stickiness. That is mostly the reason I changed to another product even though it's hard to pass up when on sale and using a coupon at Joann's. Also the best way to store is rolled and upright, I put mine on a stand up paper towel holder.

I've heard glowing praise of Sharon Schambers' stabilizer from someone at a local bee, and I was thinking of buying it at Festival. After reading around a while on the web, though, I got the idea that Floriani makes the same thing for a lower price.
By that time, though, I'd started a Baltimore Album class that involves learning needleturn, so that's so much research gone by the board.
(I wonder where "by the board" came from? Hmm.)
