bar7700 OFFLINE Posts: 291 Thank you received: 2	Jane.... Try this brand. Shades Soft Fuse. http://www.shadestextiles.com/product_pages/softfuse.html I got tired of the problem you are describing no matter what the brand. I came across Soft Fuse and now only use it. It adhere's much better and has a soft hand. It comes in sheets or a roll. Barbara

Steam a Seam II 01 Jun 2010 05:26 #46203

I buy SASII by the yard and store it rolled in one of those blue mailing tubes with the lid on. I find it can dry out if exposed to air and then it separates more easily. It separates much worse when dry. Also be sure to draw on the side that is more firmly stuck to the SASII. I know Ricky presses SASII first and then draws on it but for the life of me I cannot remember which side he presses first. Maybe he will answer or someone else will have a better memory than me.

Steam a Seam 2 separating 31 May 2010 22:55 #46200

msjane OFFLINE Posts: 27 Thank you received: 102	I have a problem with my Steam a Seam 2 separating. I have drawn designs on it and when I started cutting it the fusible is separating from the paper. Is there anything I can do to fix this. How do I prevent it from happening again? Would appreciate any help.Thanks, Jane.
