Good morning all,
I am getting ready to start a mini professional tote and the pattern calls for Décor Bond by Pellon - I had intended to use Soft and Stable until I read the pattern back.
Is it best to use the Décor Bond?

I haven't made the mini yet, but several of us have made multiple professional totes. One of the gals uses Inn Control Plus, which is very similar to Soft and Stable with good results. In fact, her bags hold shape better with this product. There are fusible versions of both Soft and Stable and Inn Control Plus, I believe. I'd say give it a go!

Thanks for your quick response - I don't have the fusible version, so I would have to either use a double sided webbing to fuse it or stitch it in maybe? I can do this!

I've used the Soft N Stable and stitched it to the outer fabrics (about 1/8" from edges). If you just do the outside pieces it works fine. In fact I liked it better than the Decor Bond

Thanks. I think I will try it as you suggested. I really like soft and stable
