quilt batting that contains a fusible web. The fusible on
the batting allows you to press all three layers of your

fuse your quilt in a fraction of the time with beautiful,
professional looking results.

How do I use
Quilter’s Fusible Batting™? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using June
Tailor’s Quilter’s Fusible Batting, it is important
to layer your quilt top, batting and back before beginning
to fuse. To fuse all three layers of your quilt at once, set
your iron on a wool setting with heavy steam. Simply press
your quilt from the center to the outer edges. Make sure you
keep your iron moving, pressing approximately 3-4 seconds in
each area. Once you have covered the entire surface area of
your quilt, allow the quilt to cool. You may then begin quilting
by hand or machine.
To fuse one side at a time, we recommend layering your quilt
top, batting and back before beginning to fuse. Your iron
should be set on a wool setting; however, this time you will
not use steam. You will press your quilt from the center
to the outer edges. Keep your iron moving and press approximately
3-4 seconds in each area. Once you have covered the entire
surface area of your quilt, allow the quilt to cool. You
will then turn your quilt over and repeat the pressing process
on the other side of your quilt. Once you have covered the
entire surface area of the second side, allow the quilt to
cool. You may then begin quilting by hand or machine.

How do I reposition
my Quilter’s Fusible Batting™? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To reposition the
Quilter’s Fusible Batting™, simply reheat the area
that is to be repositioned, with or without steam. Once the
area is thoroughly heated, gently peel the fabric away from
the batting, pull the fabric in the desired direction and immediately
lay the fabric back onto batting, smoothing with your hands.
You can then reheat the surface with or without steam to re-adhere
your fabric to the fusible batting. Allow to cool.

Where is the

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can fuse
your quilt using June Tailor’s Quilter’s Fusible
Batting™ on your ironing board or any other pressing
surface that is large enough to hold your quilt. Please be
mindful that the surface you choose to fuse your quilt on
can withstand the heat and steam of an iron. June Tailor
is not responsible for damage to a surface that is not meant
for pressing.

be a minimum of 2% to 3%. You should not experience any shrinkage

The polyester
Quilter’s Fusible Batting feels stiff. Will it soften
over time? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Low Loft and
High Loft Polyester Fusible Battings can feel stiff at first.
This is because the batting contains a fusible, which is holding
your quilt layers together. Once you have finished your quilt,
you can rinse it in cold water. The rinsing process removes
the fusible in the batting, softening your quilt. The fusible
can remain in your quilt if you would like your quilt to have
more body. You would simply not rinse your quilt in cold water
to keep the fusible active.
