TIPS & TRICKS

-

To remove the backing (paper side) from Bondaweb (fusible webbing) ready for pressing, use a small, sharp pair of scissors to create a tear in it first. This makes it easier to peel away.

For added stability, back your work with mediumweig­ht non-fusible interfacin­g.

To prevent tangles and knots, keep you thread length short (about 30-40cm) and regularly let your needle hang so it can unwind – this prevents the strands of your thread getting twisted as you stitch.
