Charlotte's Fusible Web by Charlotte Warr Andersen - 115yds
Once in a while, a new idea or technique or product comes along that revolutionizes the way we do something. Such is the case with Charlotte's Fusible Web, a new fusible thread.
Charlotte Warr Andersen is the creator of one-of-a-kind pictorial quilts specializing in fabric portraits that feature meticulous hand appliqué. Charlotte is a two-time Best of Show winner at the International Quilt Festival in Houston and also won the top prize at the 2003 Bernina Fashion Show.
Why a fusible thread? Ideas, techniques, and results are amazing. Here are four uses:
a. It makes fusible appliqué work amazingly better. Instead of using iron-on webbing in between layers that makes the finished item stiff, Charlotte's Fusible Web fuses the edges, leaving the appliqué unbelievably soft. Click here to view a tutorial.
b. It makes machine binding a lot easier and faster. Simply wind Charlotte's Fusible Web onto the bobbin and apply the binding with a small zigzag to the back of the quilt. Turn to the front, press, then stitch into place. . Click here to view a tutorial.
c. It makes holding a zipper in place so much more securely. d. It makes facings lay flat and eliminates hand sewing.
