fusiable webbing
#1
Still new at this, but my question is.............if the webbing says no sew, can I sew around it anyway (by hand)? Thought I got the right stuff and the store is just to far away and I don't want to waste it.

the no-sew fusable is very stiff and very very difficult to stitch through by hand. i made the error once, bad deal :thumbdown: i did stitch it down with the machine, it gums up the needle, i kept a small cloth saturated in machine oil to use to clean the needle every time i noticed the build up. it worked out ok but the stuff never softens up/stays stiff even after multiple washings. you would be happier to use it in a wall hanging or something that will not be handled alot so does not have to be sewn down.
