Thank you so much, you have taken the fear out of doing the fusible batting for me on a project bigger than a table runner. Love all the encouragement, your a very special lady.
Thank you Anna, I never knew what a challenge fusable batting could be.! I have only used the batting off the roll that you purchase by the yard. It was good to watch how you smooth out both side and iron. This was not boring, anyone who quilts will find this interesting. You make it look easy!!
Thank you for showing how to use fusible batting . I’m getting up there in the years and this looks like an easy way . I’m only doing small decorative quilts now. I found your channel when looking for info on crafting with wool. Sure enjoy your videos. I’m from Michigan and nice seeing your travels .
I want to thank you for your easy instructions for. The stitching pillow.My daughter and I both do a lot of quilting (hand quilting). I made both of us one and I have already used mine and love it .My daughter has a new grandson so she has been distracted for a couple of weeks.The instructions were very good .
Every time I sandwich a quilt, I have a big struggle trying to cleanly cut the batting ( I always buy a much larger size batt). So, I'm watching you lay down the back, birth the batt from the bag and as you begin to place the batt, the dawn of a thousands suns breaks open in my brain!! How did I never think of cutting the batt before I unrolled it??? That small mind jog has just made my most disliked quilting action turn into smiles!! Anna, you've done it again! Great video. I"m going to go from using the spray which goes everywhere to using fusible batting and cut the bloody thing on the width before I unroll it...thank you!!
I'm a newby and am using this exact batting on a queen size quilt I have pieced, so I am absolutely delighted with your video, thank you so much you've been a great help.
Just stumbled acrossed your videos while learning about batting as i am a new quilter. You are so funny, real and charming. I wish we were neighbors! Thank you
Me, too, have been wanting to try it, just bought some 505 spray, but hate using it because I have to do it outside and I still end up pinning it anyway.
Thank you. It’s very useful to see the entire process from getting it out of the bag to the finished product. So often, we miss the struggling parts which we have at home. I’ve been thinking about using this fusible batting for ages as I can’t get around the floor anymore either!
Hi Anna, still watching and enjoying your video's. We lost our Lab. Tamy about the same time you lost Enzo. We are lucky we still have our Boxer cross called Bertie. It leaves a big hole when they go. The weather here in South west France has been so very wet. So we must keep on sewing to keep our spirits up!. My sewing friend Pam also enjoys watching you. With best wishes Elaine w.
Oh I am so sorry...it does talk the air out of your world. I still try to step around him in the middle of the night when I get up to the bathroom....Thank you for stopping by...rain in our forecast today...
Great tutorial and a great reason to buy a cordless iron. I’m always tripping around the cord or it’s bunching up. Very frustrating!! The quilt is going to be perfect. Love it! See you next time!! Happy sewing!!!
Thank you for this tutorial!! I had wondered how this batting worked. I have a very large quilt I made my oldest grandson and this fusible batting will save me a lot of time! I really enjoy your tutorials. Keep them coming!!😁
Loved this little tutorial and no our weather is no better in Maryland but we try to make the best of it. Your grandson is going to love this snuggle quilt!!!
Hi Anna, I retired recently and decided I would learn to quilt. Your videos have been inspiring me. Both my sons live in Portland now, I have a list of the quilting and stitching shops in the area which I hope to visit next time I visit them.
I came across you channel because I just bought fusible batting and was to nervous to try it out, so I watched your video and decided to stay. Your videos I have watched, I love!!! Looking forward to watching the rest.
Thanks for demo, I will look for this when I am shopping as would like to do more machine quilting on my new sewing machine. Love visiting you at your Bee Hive. Happy quilting.
I was inspired by you to buy fusible batting! Although in my rush to get it, I didn’t pay attention or even know that one sided was an option. You said something about liking the fusible on both sides so I rechecked my order and I had indeed bought the one sided fusible :(. Now I have to return it!! It seems useless to have it only fusible on one side. Now I’m on the hunt to find the Hobbs!
Anna thanks for posting this tutorial! I have questions regarding your ironing board 1) Who's the manufacturer? What are the dimensions 2) how high up is it? I love how you have your sewing room setup and how efficient it lets you be.
this local kid made it out of thick plywood. it is 60 inches log 22 inches wide. i covered it with batting and muslin and set it on top of a cabinet that is 32 inches tall. love it!
Thank you so much for showing us the whole process on a actually size quilt. First of all cutting the batting before unrolling is genius. My mind is blown! I need to cut some corners and stop depending on my long armer. I bought 2 rolls of Hobbs fusible about 4 years ago at a convention and have been afraid to use it. But I’m going to try it today. Looks easy easy now!
@@quiltroadies1695 I did and I am so relieved. It was so much easier than I thought it would be. Fast forward...my quilt is already quilted and bound. Thanks so much for giving me the confidence to get it done.
love this lady , so friendly down to earth funny and approachable. such good info. Every demonstration Of using fusable batting has been on a very small scale. This shows threal deal. I just knew there had to be a better way than spraying or pinning. So grateful for this U tube demonstration
Great tutorial and a great reason to buy a cordless iron. I’m always tripping around the cord or it’s bunching up. Very frustrating!! The quilt is going to be perfect. Love it! See you next time!!
Anna I never knew about fuse able batting until you. I have used it several times and I really like it. I still guilt by hand and love it. Love your videos, tell G great job. Thanks
Hi Anna, thank you for posting this video. I too was not aware that fusible batting could be repositioned. I found your tutorial to be so useful. However, as most of my quilts vary from 90 - 96 inches in size I do not think this would be my go to method. Firstly, I do not have a large enough space to lay a large quilt out and use the dining table as my preferred working surface which takes about of 2/3 of the quilt. Secondly, after seeing you wrestle getting the batting out of the bag, I would have no chance... my grip is so weak you see! Is it like working with cling film and sticks to itself a lot I wonder? I usually use safety pins or 505 adhesive spray which would have a similar result as the already fusible wadding. I do have about a metre of the fusible batting somewhere but that is in readiness for a project such as a bag or similar. I totally agree with you about having the binding ready otherwise I find I am rushing off to do the next project before finishing off he last one. Love all your videos too!
Thank you!!! This is great! I left a comment on your blog too. I cannot handle basting on the floor anymore either. But now I need your ironing board. Do you have a video or blog entry about that? I don’t remember if I have seen one before. Thanks again Anna! ❤️
my ironing board is called a big board...a local kid was making them a few years back. here is a link...a bit on the spendy side..bigboardenterprises.com/bigboard/
Thanks so much for sharing our Heirloom Fusible Batting with your viewers! I wanted to let you know that we now have this batting available in 2 1/4" x 25 yard strips - perfect for creating rugs, bags and totes, straps, sashing and so much more! And to thank you for sharing this tutorial on using our Fusible Batting, I'm happy to send you some of the new strips to try - just reach out! Two things for best results: 1. We recommend this batting be fused using a DRY iron - the fusing medium is water-soluble and if it gets wet it may not stick; 2. We also recommend quilters PRESS rather than IRON when fusing this batting to fabric - it needs high heat for at least 3-5 seconds in each spot for best adhesion. Again, thanks so much...and Happy New Year! Steph Stephanie Hackney Director of Sales & Marketing shackney at hobbsbatting dot com
Thank you for this video! I, too, cannot get down on my knees to baste quilt sandwiches. I am going to try fusible batting for my next quilt, but wasn’t sure exactly what to do, and, voila, here comes your video! 😊
I used a bamboo fusible batting for a large lap quilt and it was horrible to handle, made the quilt so stiff it was not comfy. Is this cotton one different as far as the end product feeling?
Thank you for another great video, can't wait to see the quilt finished and quilted!! I bought the same cordless iron that you are using...love it. Does the fusible have a soft feel after it is washed? So far, I have only used the fusible for placemats.
I’m going to try this, but I’m nervous. My quilt top is much larger than this one and won’t fit on my ironing table completely. I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
I bought some fusible batting just because you said it was good! But I've been borrowing my friend's long arm. ... so it's in my stash for when I'm ready to make my run with it. Appreciate the video on how to actually put your sandwich together.
This is just the video I've been wanting to see. Do you think it'll work with minky on the back? Normally if I use minky I don't use any batting but the quilt I'm doing right now has a lot of white and the minky is a medium torquoise so I'm afraid it'll show through. To add to my angst the minky is not smooth but is dimpled and pretty thick. Do you think it'll work or should I just resign myself that I'm going to be doing a lot of pinning?
Minky is a wily beast...you may end up pulling your hair out...I think it would be worth taking a 18 inch square of plain fabric, the minky and fusible batting and give it a go on a smaller scale to see if it is worth the risk...then report back to us!!
I recently bought a huge bag of this stuff for a huge quilt, cuz of my quilt bunching at the ends after painstakingly making sure every square is jointed perfectly...as we all try to do, then bunching at the end! So frustrating. So the gift quilt ends up my new quilt, Thank you for teaching me how to use this product. Yes, I too love making the edging strips cuz I know we are almost done, and I am ready to quilt my baby!
in the quilting world new products ALL look fabulous until you spend money and try it for the first time...then you wonder why you spent the money, lol if something doesn't work for me I pass it on and visa versa
No I love it! You are right as usual. I was commenting on needing this product because I was having problems with bunching even after pinning. No this iron on batting worked wonders for my home sewing machine. And I slowed down, and quit worrying LOL I so enjoy your videos always.
I measure the batting that's left and include a paper inside the bag with those measurements. I make sure that paper is visible from the outside. Then, next time when I need batting, it's easy to see if there's enough in that bag.
Thank you so much for showing this. I've been wanting to try this batting but have been unsure how to do it. I am curious as to how you'd do a queen size. I only have one of those small wall iron boards. Do I need to make a table top ironing board? Again thank you!
I have quilted at queen size quilt with it and for sure a big board would make it easier...might get frustrating on a very small board but I have done it!
It happened to me. It was a nightmare! I don’t know what I did wrong but I did follow the directions. I was so disappointed. I still have some left over. Will try again.
one time this happened to time and I found out the batting was a fusible only on one side...what was the point of that??? I do use steam..in fact I steam the heck out of everything!
Thanks for the info and demo on using visible batting. I'm assuming there aren't any issues with your needle gumming up or you wouldn't continue to use it.
that's great! Thanks. I was getting some puffing when I tried to pin baste and I thought I had done a really good job! Can you tell me what type of iron you are using? Do you like it? I would really like a cordless~
Thank you! I currently have the kind that sits face down anyway but I must be the only person in the world whos hand doesn't sit on top of the handle when I iron so the little legs don't retract and pulls my fabric everywhere :/
Such a great helpful video!!! I’ve struggled using fusible batting. I didn’t know that I could steam press it. I thought I had to count seven seconds each time. Great idea to ditch stitch it before you do anything else. Question: What are the dimensions of your ironing board?
Hi. I am a total beginner to quilt making. During our lockdown I have made two 1000 patch scrap quilt tops, oh yes?!?!? All in different patches, 1000 different pieces of material from, tweed, velvet to cotton. Can I ask how the fusible batting works on very UNEVEN quilt tops. ThankYOU any advice welcome. Kim
I am not sure but I think if all the seams on the pieces are pressed well and you used steam to set it...it would be ok. A good experiment...let us know!
PLEASE HELP...i am doing a queen size t shirt quilt with pictures on each block..the blocks look so pretty with just the picture..i am trying NOT to tack inside the block around the picture. can i use fusible batting and only sew in the ditch and not do any tatting or quilting in the block. THANK YOU
Thank you so much, you have taken the fear out of doing the fusible batting for me on a project bigger than a table runner. Love all the encouragement, your a very special lady.
Thank you Anna,

I found your channel when looking for info on crafting with wool. Sure enjoy your videos. I’m from Michigan and nice seeing your travels .
I love using it especially for the smalls...that is why I save all my scraps! Wool should be my middle name, lol
I want to thank you for your easy instructions for. The stitching pillow.My daughter and I both do a lot of quilting (hand quilting). I made both of us one and I have already used mine and love it .My daughter has a new grandson so she has been distracted for a couple of weeks.The instructions were very good .
fantastic...I love hearing this...I know that it is going to keep us stitching longer :)
Thank you so much! I really appreciate being able to see how you work with the fusible batting on a large project!

I have asthma so I can't use the spray...isn't it fun when we have an ah ha moment! happens to me all the time when I am cooking!, lol

me too! We need more stitchy friends!

Yup, 2-3 times before it no longer sticks!

great hic up :)
Thank you for the tutorial. I came to a RUclips for help making a decision about the Hobbs fusible batting. I'm sold!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this tutorial!! I had wondered how this batting worked. I have a very large quilt I made my oldest grandson and this fusible batting will save me a lot of time! I really enjoy your tutorials. Keep them coming!!😁
I hope it works for you because pinning a big quilt is painful, lol
thanks for the lesson on fusible batting....I know someone is going to love his quilt!
Loved this little tutorial and no our weather is no better in Maryland but we try to make the best of it. Your grandson is going to love this snuggle quilt!!!

that cordless iron is my favorite tool!
Great video, thank you again, it’s always fun to watch you 😊
it is fun for me to welcome the quilting world into the bee hive!
Thanks for showing us how to use fusible batting. Think I will soon give it a try. Loved your ending with you and G. Pam in Alabama

Awesome work Anna ...the quilt is looking fabulous 👏...now for the quilting 😘💐
quilting is perfect for the boy and the quilt!
Would love to see the finished quilt! Great job!
more close ups in the next video :)

Always entertaining AND informative . I have seen a few Harry Potter themed quilts and have to say yours is definitely the best !!
Awww thank you!
Thanks for the tutorial Anna! I will be putting that cordless iron on my wish list for sure!!
you'll love it!

Thank you so much. I’ve just learned about fusible batting on both sides!
A while ago you mentioned Hobbs Fusible Batting and I have loved it ever since!!
Sweeeet!
Anna I never knew about fuse able batting until you. I have used it several times and I really like it. I still guilt by hand and love it. Love your videos, tell G great job. Thanks
Thank you for giving it a try! G says thank you :)
Anna, you taught me something. I use Hobbs fusible also, but never thought about cutting before I open it. Duh on me! So much easier. 😍
I know...a sudden stroke of quilting genius, lol
Thank you Anna. I am learning so much from you.
Super interesting video as always! You have the perfect ironing board for that job. 😊
I love my board...a big board fastened to the top of a dresser. :)

That a beautiful quilt top, I sure will try that fusible batting.
there are many paths to completion , lol

Thank you for adding on to this tutorial!
That’s great information 👍 Thank you 👍🇬🇧
I didn't know Hobbs had fusible batting . I love it .thank you
Thanks. I loved it. Next quilt I will use your technique. I love your videos...😍
when it comes to quilting it is better to be brave or go home, LOL
Thank you for this video! I, too, cannot get down on my knees to baste quilt sandwiches. I am going to try fusible batting for my next quilt, but wasn’t sure exactly what to do, and, voila, here comes your video! 😊
yeah...the knees scream for fusible! lol
Great idea about making your binding first, it definitely is a stall for me unless I have some ready. Thanks so much for the demo, really is helpful.
Also, good on you for using flannel backing, kids prefer it or minky.
I know I will have less issue if the binding is ready, LOL
I used a bamboo fusible batting for a large lap quilt and it was horrible to handle, made the quilt so stiff it was not comfy. Is this cotton one different as far as the end product feeling?
It feels a bit stiff as you are unrolling it and layering it but once quilted there is no stiffness and after washing it is as soft as any of them :)
I never thought to put flannel on the back
soooo cozy :)
This was a great video, always have wondered if it was easy or not. Will look at trying this out for several UFO's. Love your videos.
it will make your UFO pile smaller
Hi Anna! Didn't know about double fusible fabric! Thank you! Will give it a try!
makes life easier!
Great tip Anna😃 I will have to try this!
I've been using fusible batting also. The weather in AL has been in the 90's already! Summer is going to be something!
Yikes...we have had a few days of 70-80 but tomorrow drops to the 50's
Loved your ending with G on the trail. Two cuties.
awww thanks, G said he thought we were ready for a new ending/beginning
Like the double sided batting. Good idea.
the only way to go!
Anna we love your videos, but I was wondering why don't you mive your light to the side and you wont have to roll it up on the board?
just lazy it is clamped to the board and I'm lazy, lol
Thank you for another great video, can't wait to see the quilt finished and quilted!! I bought the same cordless iron that you are using...love it. Does the fusible have a soft feel after it is washed? So far, I have only used the fusible for placemats.
it feels the same after laundering than any other batting. Cordless iron is the best!
I like your ironing board. Did you make it
a local teenager was making them a few years back :)
I’m going to try this, but I’m nervous. My quilt top is much larger than this one and won’t fit on my ironing table completely. I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
I bought some fusible batting just because you said it was good! But I've been borrowing my friend's long arm. ... so it's in my stash for when I'm ready to make my run with it. Appreciate the video on how to actually put your sandwich together.
yeah...it is wasted money on a long arm, lol
This is just the video I've been wanting to see. Do you think it'll work with minky on the back? Normally if I use minky I don't use any batting but the quilt I'm doing right now has a lot of white and the minky is a medium torquoise so I'm afraid it'll show through. To add to my angst the minky is not smooth but is dimpled and pretty thick. Do you think it'll work or should I just resign myself that I'm going to be doing a lot of pinning?
Minky is a wily beast...you may end up pulling your hair out...I think it would be worth taking a 18 inch square of plain fabric, the minky and fusible batting and give it a go on a smaller scale to see if it is worth the risk...then report back to us!!
That was so pleasant to watch! I really didn’t even need to know this 😃
LOL...now that is the best critic ever!
Thanks for the information... much appreciated 👍❤❤
Thank you Anna, Loved it
I love your new ending. Thanks for the great tutorial...tip.
thank you...G said we were ready for a new ending
Am I losing it or did you just do a video on making a project bag with zipper, not long ago? LOL. I can't find it. Beautiful little spot in AZ? ❤️
no I did not...but I am going to...yikes!
Quilt Roadies lol 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️
I recently bought a huge bag of this stuff for a huge quilt, cuz of my quilt bunching at the ends after painstakingly making sure every square is jointed perfectly...as we all try to do, then bunching at the end! So frustrating. So the gift quilt ends up my new quilt, Thank you for teaching me how to use this product. Yes, I too love making the edging strips cuz I know we are almost done, and I am ready to quilt my baby!
in the quilting world new products ALL look fabulous until you spend money and try it for the first time...then you wonder why you spent the money, lol if something doesn't work for me I pass it on and visa versa
No I love it! You are right as usual. I was commenting on needing this product because I was having problems with bunching even after pinning. No this iron on batting worked wonders for my home sewing machine. And I slowed down, and quit worrying LOL I so enjoy your videos always.
I measure the batting that's left and include a paper inside the bag with those measurements. I make sure that paper is visible from the outside. Then, next time when I need batting, it's easy to see if there's enough in that bag.
you are sooo smart!!!
Thanks so much for doing this! I was concerned about the wrinkles in the batting but you said that they go away with the pressing .. fingers crossed!
Just layer another today and just gently pulled them out…easy peasy 😁
Thank you so much for showing this. I've been wanting to try this batting but have been unsure how to do it. I am curious as to how you'd do a queen size. I only have one of those small wall iron boards. Do I need to make a table top ironing board? Again thank you!
I have quilted at queen size quilt with it and for sure a big board would make it easier...might get frustrating on a very small board but I have done it!
Thank you for the information . I shall have to buy the fusible wadding from now on.
I have asthma and can't use the spray so this is a wonderful alternative!
Super cool, mark that batting bag with a sharpie that you cut it in half. Love ya girl!
what a great idea!
I need to try fusible!
Anna, Does the fusible batting gunk up your needles? I really want to try it. I love your sewing room/quilt studio and I love your videos.
that has never happened to me but we are a dry climate. Thank you...it is my happy place :)
It happened to me. It was a nightmare! I don’t know what I did wrong but I did follow the directions. I was so disappointed. I still have some left over. Will try again.
Steam or no? I tried fusible with a wide backing, and it didn't stick. Ever have that issue?
one time this happened to time and I found out the batting was a fusible only on one side...what was the point of that??? I do use steam..in fact I steam the heck out of everything!
Thanks for the info and demo on using visible batting. I'm assuming there aren't any issues with your needle gumming up or you wouldn't continue to use it.
has never happened to me in over 10 years but if it did I would assume it was a bad batch
I might have got a bad batch because mine clogged my needle so badly. I changed needles three times and finally had to remove the batting.
me gusto ese bateo,un saludo desde Madrid
that's great! Thanks. I was getting some puffing when I tried to pin baste and I thought I had done a really good job! Can you tell me what type of iron you are using? Do you like it? I would really like a cordless~
I LOVE my cordless iron...it is a Panasonic. The only learning curve is to remember to dock it instead of sitting it upright.
Thank you! I currently have the kind that sits face down anyway but I must be the only person in the world whos hand doesn't sit on top of the handle when I iron so the little legs don't retract and pulls my fabric everywhere :/
Hi Anna, I have the same iron. I would never go back to a corded iron. LOL
yep...my favorite iron!
Such a great helpful video!!! I’ve struggled using fusible batting. I didn’t know that I could steam press it. I thought I had to count seven seconds each time. Great idea to ditch stitch it before you do anything else. Question: What are the dimensions of your ironing board?
I’m not able to measure it but my guess is 2 feet by 5 feet🙏
I bet you are glad you have a cordless iron. I know I love mine!
OMG...I love it!!
Did you wash the flannel back?
I did...afraid of shinkage
I use the same batting. Love it
Hi. I am a total beginner to quilt making. During our lockdown I have made two 1000 patch scrap quilt tops, oh yes?!?!? All in different patches, 1000 different pieces of material from, tweed, velvet to cotton. Can I ask how the fusible batting works on very UNEVEN quilt tops. ThankYOU any advice welcome. Kim
I am not sure but I think if all the seams on the pieces are pressed well and you used steam to set it...it would be ok. A good experiment...let us know!
what a great tutorial never using another batting. thanks
I love it!
Thank you for sharing you’ve really help me out
Great tutorial I apreciate !
Thanks Anna ....loved your tip !...p.s. It's raining a lot here too in NE Pa.👋

Thank you so much, I have been wanting to try fusible batting but didn't feel very confident, now I do thanks to your video...
What is the double sided one like in hand quilting?
I currently have a large wallhanging that I am hand quilting and it feels no different :)

PLEASE HELP...i am doing a queen size t shirt quilt with pictures on each block..the blocks look so pretty with just the picture..i am trying NOT to tack inside the block around the picture. can i use fusible batting and only sew in the ditch and not do any tatting or quilting in the block. THANK YOU
The fusible washes out so you will need to quilt Iinside the blocks if they are bigger than the recommended quilting spacing of the batting.
VERY INFORMATIVE THANKS SO MUCH NEW TO QUILTING LIVE HENERSON NV.
how are you going to quilt it?
I cross hatched the body of the quilt and then I wrote in cursive writing in the border names, spells and charms :)
Yes Thankyou for the tip. 😊
