    Default Fusible polyester batting?

    Does anyone know if there's a fusible poly batting around? Other than Fusible Fleece? I can't seem to find any, and I'm wondering if it's even available.

    I believe there is. Search on each company's web site.

    I wonder what kind of fusible you could put on polyester? My Hobbs 80/20 is fused with a hot iron but polyester melts with an iron. Google polyester fusible quilt batt and see if they make it and how it is fused.

    Yes, it exists. I'm pretty sure I even bought some (but never used it). Hobby Lobby sells it.

    Just googled. Yes it exists. June Taylor seems main supplier. How does it stick it says " just press" assume that means with hands.
    Googled fusible poly.. Batting . There was also a fleece.

    I have used it on small projects. You simply iron it on from the fabric side with a medium hot iron.

    There is. I ordered some from Joann.com, but they sent me something else. So, Joanns doesn't have it any more. I've seen it used, but don't remember the brand.

    I use June Taylor fusible. I buy it in the largest size and cut it to size because it is much cheaper. BUT, it is not evenly distributed (the quality isn't that great) so I use it for smaller things, or for children (my g-kids love using their quilts for forts, or as transpertation vehicals for their pets). I still like it because it is so easy to use, making the quilting part go so fast. I don't use it for large quilts or wedding quilt types. Joann's used to sell it (don't know if they still do because I haven't bought any in the last year or more).
