in r form/soft and stable
Has anyone used these 2 products? Are they similar ? Do you prefer one or the other ? I haven't tried either but am thinking either might work well to make a cover for my new nook that I got for Christmas .

The In-R-Foam is fusible on both sides I think; the Soft and Stable is not fusible. If you have creases/wrinkles in the Soft and Stable, it can be pressed. I don't know how you'd deal with pressing the In-R-Foam if you only had fabric on one side. Soft and Stable does not have to be quilted unless you want to. I'm not sure about the In-R-Foam in regards to quilting requirements. Either could be used to make your own double sided quilt fabric.
I just ordered some Soft and Stable, but haven't used it yet. For my use, I am making a tote with separate lining and laptop sleeve inside.
When I purchased the Soft and Stable, I noticed the prices varied greatly, and shipping could get high, it's a large package. I got it on ebay with free shipping for under $12 for 18x58 piece.

I love Soft n Stable. You can sew through it easily and it really holds a shape.you do not have to quilt it. I love it for small bags. I used it on my Bionic gear bag as well as my Sew Together bag.they were not quilted but they look smooth.

After watching Jenny Doan's video, I tried to order some I R Form from MSQC; but they were out. I have never used it; but I have made about 60 tote bags with Soft and Stable. I love, love, love that product.
