    I purchased some Pellon ... I need someone to tell me how I can tell the difference between 70, 71 and 72?

    I have plastic layer on one side of this. What's so confusing is it talks about all three on the plastic info that came with it.


    Could someone help me?

    Thanks.

    Robin

    Is it fusible? If so is it on one or both sides? 70 is non fusible, 71 is fusible one side, and 72 is fusible on both sides.

    Thanks, but my problem was I didn't know which one I had ... the plastic with the material talks about all three ... and I was hoping to figure out which one I had in my hands ... and I looked for pictures to see if I could tell the difference ... we'll see what happens tomorrow at my class ...

    If you can cut a small piece off, do that and sandwich it in between two scraps of fabric. Iron it to see if it fuses and if so, on both sides or just one.

    On Pellon the fusible usually has a sheen to it so you may be able to see the fusible if it's there.
