Terial Magic is a fabric stiffener that will turn your fabric to a paper-like sheet. It has so many uses. It makes fabric easy to cut and helps prevent fabric from fraying after it is cut (perfect for raw-edge appliqué), makes difficult fabrics easier to manage for sewing and quilting, makes fabric foldable, stampable, inkjet printable, and more.
