YLI Glow bug thread

any experience?

Good stuff? bad? I was thinking about getting some for a Halloween quilt in my head with fabrics from Wendy's swap last year!

I love fondling fabric!!

I'd love to hear from those who have used it.

thanks, Tricia

It's got a neat effect, but it's a bit shreddy to work with...I ended up using a Metafil needle with it. Do remember the glow is "heat activated", so if the quilt is folded up, the glowworm won't glow. I used it to outline the letters in Marnina's Fish Farm and to do "hidden" writing on the bottom of Emily's Go Fish quilt.

Their mom says she can see bits of the writing as she goes to tuck them in at night!

I really like using this stuff. It lasts pretty well as long as you don't put anything hot like an iron on it. I used it to outline stars on a flag quilt, and that was 5 years ago. I've machine washed and dried it on gentle/low, and it still glows.

I haven't tried it in a machine, but quilting by hand is fine, really.

I used it to embroider clock numbers and DGS name on 2 clocks. Really does glow-a lot. Gen
