When I visited Judy in Maine in October, she kindly gave me a box of Glad 'Press'n Seal' which isn't available in australian supermarkets. [Not that I've seen, at any rate.] She showed me how to trace a quilting design on a square of it, and then finger press it to the fabric to be quilted. I thought I would open the topic up for discussion here rather than just emailing Judy privately in case others are interested. I'm going to trial a sample piece. My question is, once quilted, do you just tear away the plastic? How difficult is this if some of the quilting lines are close together? And what happens if tiny pieces of plastic remain on the fabric and you then iron it? I'm talking machine quilting here, not hand.
Any ideas or tips?
