EZ-Steam® 1-Sided

Legacy EZ-Steam® 1-Sided is a pressure sensitive fusible web with a paper backing. The adhesive side aids in the placement of the fusible and gives the versatility of moving the appliqué into another position until it has been permanently fused to the fabric. The EZ-Steam® will remain pliable after fusing and is completely machine safe for sewing. Easy to use with fabric, cardboard, paper, batting, ribbon, patches, foam, wood and many more!

General Directions:

1. Using a pen or water-soluble marker, draw or trace your pattern directly on to the side of the EZ-Steam® without the backing. (If you are using a design in the fabric, you do not need to trace it.)
2. Remove the paper and finger press the sticky side of the EZ-STeam® to the back of your appliqué fabric.
3. Cut out your appliqué following pattern lines. Position on the right side of your background fabric (or surface) with fusible side down. Touch tip of iron in a few spots to keep from shifting during fusing.
4. Set iron to Cotton setting with Steam. Cover with a damp press cloth and press down firmly in place for 10-15 seconds. (If fusing to cardboard, paper or wood, use dry press cloth and eliminate steam.) If using a lower heat setting, hold the iron in place longer or repeat process to get a permanent bond.
5. Repeat fusing process, overlapping slightly, until entire area is fused.

Tip:

— For heavier fabrics, fuse from both sides for a more secure bond.

NOTE:

  • We recommend pre-washing all fabrics before fusing. This will help remove any finishes that might prevent the adhesive from penetrating the fabric. Also, this should take out any shrinkage from your fabric. Do not use fabric softeners or dryer sheets.
  • Always pre-test any fusibles to insure that your fabric is compatible and to make sure that your iron temperature is compatible with the type of fabric you are using. Adjust if necessary.
  • Not recommended for acetates, Mylar® or lace fabrics.

 

Description

GENERAL DIRECTIONS
1. With backing still attached, cut a piece of EZ-Steam® slightly larger than your appliqué design.
2. Using a pen or water soluble marker, trace or draw your design directly on to the side of the EZ-Steam® without the backing. (If you are using the design in the fabric, you do not need to trace it.)
3. Remove the paper and finger press the sticky side of the EZ-Steam® to the wrong side of your appliqué material.
4. Cut the appliqué material and EZ-Steam® together following your pattern lines.
5. Position the appliqué on the right side of your background fabric. Appliqué can be repositioned at this time. Set your iron to Cotton setting with steam. Cover with a damp press cloth. Press down FIRMLY in place for approximately 10-15 seconds. (When fusing to cardboard or paper, eliminate steam and use dry press cloth. If using a lower heat setting, hold the iron in place longer or repeat process to get a permanent bond.)
6. Repeat fusing process, overlapping slightly, until entire area is fused.
7. Once completely fused, the EZ Steam® will not fray or lift off. However, if you prefer to do a satin stitch or other decorative stitch on your applique, EZ-Steam® is completely machine safe and will not gum up your needle.
