Thank You so much for the quick replies. I am going to work on a piece of
either fleece or a velour that I want to make into a pillow...so it is
actuall just a loose piece of fabric. I am going to ask another
question...I got a reply from Brenda (Thank You too Brenda!) that says she
uses non-fusible interfacing on the back also...do you all do that as well ?
The instructions I have do not call for that....but like I said I am a
newbie to this .
Thanks So Much
Cheryl
