In a recent quilt depicting a beach scene, I used it for sand. If firmly and completely attached you can easily sew through it without it detaching itself from the muslin base.Ann In Fallbrook, CAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10733573729471911332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2144625015076186871.post-88624495789316674722013-06-23T17:40:06.925-07:002013-06-23T17:40:06.925-07:00Thanks so much for the comment.

I woudn't have thought of using the fusible.

I like Steam-a-seam II because you can re-position things so easily.<br />Then I seal them with some liquid matte medium. Sometimes I add some paint to the medium to change the color of the paper or add some glitz. Once it is dry, I can stitch through it paper and all without tearing. If I use modge podge, I have trouble painting or stamping on top. It also takes a long (very long) time to dry. I did that on one quilt and it was months before the stickiness went away. I love using paper.
