I am making a quilted wall hanging of a Tiki Bar. The directions call for Heat N Bond on the roof piece and then says to "cut the bottom 4 inches up about 2/3 inches wide. Heat then crinkle according to HnB directions". I can not find anything on the wrapper or on the internet about crinkling. Does anyone know how to do this or have done it? Thanks for your help. I will post a picture once I am done with it.

So the bottom that you fringe and krinkle is to give the roof texture like the palm fronds of a tiki bar? I think I would try a little sample since after heating you are going to try to stick wrinkles and pleats in it.

hmmm, there are products or at least one out there that will crinkle with heat. can't remember the name though.

Heat n Bond has a Facebook page. Over 16,000 posters there. I'm sure one of them will know how to crinkle with it. It's a great resource how to use the product in many different ways.

I checked the web page for the quilt shop where I got the pattern, which they also wrote, and they are open today. Usually aren't on Sunday. Called and asked how I was to "crinkle" the roof. Was told to when I cut the tiki strips, to heat them with the iron and push towards the main part of the roof. I tried it on a practice piece and I think it will work. If not, it turns out we may be in the area of the quilt shop this week and I can stop in. Thanks for all the suggestions.

I wonder if Texture Magic would work?

I called the LQS that wrote and where I got the pattern. When the directions said "crinkle" it was what I would call "wrinkle". After pressing the strips that I cut for the Tiki Bar roof, I only needed to wrinkle it in my hands to make the roof look 3-dementional. I will post a picture in a couple days when it is finished. Thanks to all for your suggestions.

Good idea to call the shop where you bought it. Hope to see your finished work soon. :-)

Here is a picture of the Tiki Hut I was working on when I asked the question about Heat N Bond. I made this for some friends that let us stay at their FL home last Spring. Hope they like it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]562778[/ATTACH]
