Help Sarah use angelina fibers

1 Comment 

Reader Sarah says,

I am new at using angelina fibres. I want to attach some “calypso blue” crimped fibres to a pictorial quilt to illustrate the sparkle on the sea. I don’t want the strands to go in all directions and not so many on in one place. What is the best way of attaching them to the fabric? I have used paper towels to briefly fuse a few strands at a time. Have you ever used arleenes tacky glue for the individual strands. I have tried steam a seam 2 but there will be residual left on the fabric? Any ideas would be helpful.

Do you have advice that could help Sarah? Please share it with all of us in a comment to this post!

    they sell fusing powder for angelina. She could sprinkle that down then carefully lay out the strands with tweezer, then heat press and fuse.
