Nortex Mill White Heavyweight Fusible Iron On Interfacing Fabric (Per Metre)

Product Information

Lacework and doilies make great craft items using a stiffening agent and a mold, such as an upturned bowl. Boning, or inserting plastic stays into bodices and other tight-fitting garments and corsets, was the method used to strap a lady into her garment in the days of flowing dresses and tightly fitting gowns. It is very important to wash your fabric BEFORE adding the interfacing so that any shrinkage that may take place has been done so before adding the interfacing.

At Fabric Land, we pride ourselves on offering high-quality haberdashery supplies, and our interfacing collection is no exception. Some stiffening agents are used to give the fabric more permanence at the time of cutting and then washed away. I think a desk mat would have a lot of wear and tear and as you said the corn starch would come off on your hands with regular work. It is perfect for those difficult to work with fabrics, like chiffons and silks, that tend to slide all over while you are trying to sew. Make your own fabric stiffener solution by mixing 1 tablespoon of wood glue (PVA glue) with 1 cup of water and brush on or spray where necessary.

Place the crochet piece, or fabric piece on a backing cloth with some foam underlay and shape with your hands. You can mix glue and water and put them in a spray bottle or purchase commercial stiffener sprays such as Aleene's Stiffen Quick. Sometimes you’ll use interfacing to stiffen fabric and other times you will want to try home-made or commercially available fabric stiffeners.

You can make fantastic roller blinds for your home using your favourite fabrics - use the filter to see fabrics for roller blinds to choose from fabrics that work really well. This is a lighter weight backing than our wide roller blind backing and will not cut out light completely. Welcome to Fabric Land, where you’ll find an extensive collection of interfacing options to elevate your sewing projects. The biggest challenge I had was working out where to press it safely, otherwise everything worked really well. The texture will be like thin cream – you can paint it onto the fabric or try spraying it on, but remember to clean the nozzle of the spray bottle as soon as you finish spraying, or it will clog up.This Black Lightweight Interfacing makes it easy to add strength and sturdiness to parts of your project effortlessly.
