Thermoweb #3912 Heat'n Bond Iron-On Vinyl -17"X5 Yards Gloss

Easy to use. Makes a nice waterproof finish on my fabric

Exactly what I hoped for

I'm making handbags and oil cloth and laminated fabric is just too costly to purchase. So I tried this and I can't believe it worked. So now I can use any fabric I want for handbags and I don't have to worry about them getting dirty. It is crispy and feels like your fabric is paper so it's odd. Sure a thicker fabric might feel better but I Used a light one. Also was scared to sew it because if I made a mistake and had to undo my stitching, scared it would tear. So far no mistakes... WHEEW. Also haven't tried to iron over it in the areas needed to for smoothing out my seam lines. Almost finished so I will see if I will be stocking up on some more of this product. Need to figure out how I will smooth out my areas because I'm not sure if it will melt.It does slide a lot when trying to apply it to your fabric so you need to be careful and make sure it is on right before you apply it with the iron. Maybe cut it a little bigger but have something under it so you don't melt it onto your ironing board. Or more easy is to cut it smaller. Other than getting it to stay still where you want it, it is very easy and fast to apply. Haven't made anything that needs a wash from the washer and dryer so not sure how that would work out. Just use double sided tape to hold your seams if sewing and do not use pins as you might get holes you can't close of course.

I bought the 17"x 2 yards also, but this is a better price. Very fast shipping, awesome product! I got this to make a changing pad for my diaper bag and it's awesome. Not only did I make a changing pad, I made a few wet bags, a pad for under the high chair and some changing pads for a few friends. It's easy to use and adheres to fabric great. I recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and easy craft. You can use it to make table cloths and placemats too. I just chose the fabric that I liked, cut it to the size I wanted, placed the iron on vinyl over top and with a cloth in between the vinyl and the iron, slowly ironed it onto the fabric. You don't have to cut the vinyl to fit exactly because once it's ironed on its easy to trim the excess. I absolutely love this stuff! The price is cheaper than any of my local craft stores which is a huge plus.

I just got this today and couldn't wait to use it. I ordered this to waterproof the lining fabric of a bag I'm making this weekend. That fabric hasn't come yet but I still had to try it out. I printed a picture on regular paper and used this to cover it. The back was black construction paper I covered as well with the vinyl and the inside is contact paper. I'm a beginning sewer only had my machine months and this was super easy to use and the pouch was easy to make. It does crinkle a lot which so far is the only negative. Could be something I'm doing wrong or could be because it shrinks with the heat who knows. The instructions were easy to follow. Can't wait to start using it in other projects. I've already had requests to make bag for other people. From regular printer and construction paper!

It worked well in my project….

The fusible vinyl is very easy and durable

This was a great deal for the length of vinyl that you get compared to the iron-on vinyl I found by the yard at Walmart. I've been using it to make makeup bags with an easy to wipe lining. It's super easy to use and looks great on the finished product. Also, when you're turning your project and the vinyl gets a bit wrinkly, all you have to do is heat it up again and it'll be back to looking glossy and new! The only thing I'm not crazy about is that the finished product has a crinkly sound...maybe it won't after it's broken in a bit, though. :)
