See earlier threads for a complete rundown. You can trace quilting designs
onto P&S using permanent pen. It clings to your quilt sandwich without shifting. You can free-motion quilt through it, and it tears away easily afterwards. Roberta in D "Cynthia Mason" wrote in message ... What do you use Press and Seal for?? |

it's not advisable to use this for straigt line quilting with a foot of any
kind... it sticks and you end up with a mess... I'm still recovering from that happening to my Competition quilt!! -- Jessamy In The Netherlands ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Kate Dicey" schreef in bericht ...

I would DEFINITELY not sew into this
It will gum up your needles We are in the process of making a very transparent wet laid non woven for this It will have a VERY light fusible initial tack All of our non wovens are needle friendly - we include silicone in the mix as a needle lubricant It will be called Floriani Design Placement Tearaway We will send samples and pls be patient - by the first of the year Fred -- Fred Lebow Vice President - Non Wovens - Embroidery Stabilizers HTCW Products http://www.htcwproducts.net http://www.handsonsewingschools.com/Orlando/Orlando.htm Feb 23-26 "Cynthia Mason" wrote in message ...

I've used Press and Seal with a walking foot with no problem and
it doesn't gum up the needle at all. Susie it's not advisable to use this for straigt line quilting with a foot of any kind... it sticks and you end up with a mess... I'm still recovering from that happening to my Competition quilt!! -- Jessamy |

sorry I meant it sticks to the sewing machine foot and *not* the needle...
my foot just dragged the press and seal along and wrinkled everything up and then it tore and then well.. lets just say that the quilting lines were no longer where they were supposed to be and I was running rather late on the deadline to hand in my quilt ( the next day.. long story!) so it was rather traumatic at the time ... now I can nearly laugh about it -- Jessamy In The Netherlands ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I've used Press and Seal with a walking foot with no problem and it doesn't gum up the needle at all.

Jessamy,
Ooooooooops, I was referring to the guys post. Frank I think his name was. He said it would gum up the needle and it didn't gum up mine. It could be that your walking foot presses down much harder or something.

ah yes *that* post... LOL
I don't use a walking foot.. in fact I don't even have one...it was my normal 1/4" foot that messed things up - a pity really as the original quilting pattern was miles better than what I eventually had to do... -- Jessamy In The Netherlands ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jessamy, Ooooooooops, I was referring to the guys post.
