I'm not real sure about all the fabrics, but recently I did buy those spikey
rubber balls for the dryer. Love 'em! hmm.... fussy fusible. sigh
Thanks for the pointers!

Be absolutely certain that you do not have any fabric softener on the
fabrics. That can cause the fusible to not get a good grip. And H&B
products are rather particular about the temperature and method you use,
so be sure to follow the directions to the letter for the best bond.

Last summer I fused lettering on a wall hanging for a wedding gift. I'm
pretty sure I used the Steam-a-Seam-2, though it may have been Wonder
Under. Whatever it was specifically said it didn't have to be stitched
down, so I didn't. I washed it after it was done and the edges of the
letters were all curling a bit. Fortunately it was just the edges
loosening a bit, so I went back and stitched them all down and all was
well. This was the first time -- and the last -- that I use anything but
Heat'n'Bond Ultra if I don't want to stitch the edges down; I've never
had any problem with that releasing.

Is Steam-A-Seam 2 really good enough for fusible applique on a
wall-hanging, with no stitching of the edges of the pieces? I mean, I
can't even budge it when I scratch at it with my fingernail, BUT - I
would feel better if I heard it from someone with actual experience.
And actually, this block will be going into a quilt, I just remembered.
