GENERAL DIRECTIONS
Step 1/Trim and Steam-Baste 1. Pin pattern piece to SOF-SHAPE in any direction; cut. Trim seam allowances to ⅛” (3mm). 2. Place fusible side of SOF-SHAPE to wrong side of fabric. Pin, then steam-baste along edges with tip of iron. Remove pins.
Step2/ Fuse 1. Cover with DAMP press cloth. 2. With iron at wool/steam setting, press FIRMLY for full 15 seconds. Repeat, lifting and slightly overlapping iron until all interfacing is fused. 3. Steam press on right side. Let fabric cool, then check bond. 4. Use steam iron with metal sole plate. Hand-held steamers will not permanently bond interfacing to fabric.
TIP:
Use your damp press cloth as a temperature and timing guide. After 15 seconds, press cloth should be dry. If not, raise iron temperature or hold iron in place a few seconds longer.
