fusible thread Tips for using Fusible Thread

Fusible thread is a meltable binding yarn made of polyester or nylon. In the June/July issue of Quilting Arts Magazine, mixed-media fiber artist Allyson Faulkner shows how to use fusible thread and water-soluble fabric to create puckered, undulating textures. Here are some other benefits and tips for using fusible thread:

  • Because fusible thread is fine like dental floss, you can position your fusible exactly where you want it-a bonus on detail work.
  • Fusible thread creates a soft, flexible bond for less stiffness and bulk than with many conventional fusible webs.
  • It makes positioning fusible appliqué, bindings, and heavy yarns easier and faster.
  • Use it in the bobbin, as a top thread, or in a hand-sewing needle.
