Bear Threads Pressing Sheet
It's not often that we find a
product that not only becomes indispensable for
us, but that we want to tell others about.
The Bear Threads pressing sheet is one of those.
You may use this applique pressing
sheet and multi-purpose craft sheet:
- As an applique sheet for
pre-assembling quilting blocks and applique
pieces
- As a pressing cloth, including
for painted pieces, photo transfers, and
over paper piecing
- As a craft sheet - hot
glue peels right off, as do any glues, wax,
clays, or stiffening projects
- For kids crafts - protects
all surfaces and cleans up easily
- As a painting palette:
projects won't stick and paints peel off
when dry
- For baking projects that
don't contain oil such as shrink-art, clays,
and salt dough.
To clean simply rub off any
excess fusing medium. If the whole sheet is
covered, just use an extra scrap of fabric
and press to the top of the sheet (sheet is
multi-sided). When cool, simply peel the fabric
off and any 'gunk' from the sheet will have
transferred to the fabric. You may also wash
the sheet using soapy water - and a soft scrub
will remove any ink from pattern transfers.
The double-sided, reusable pressing sheet
is made from ultra high temperature glass and
coated with non-stick Polygon™;
13" x 17". Just roll up for storage.
The sheet has a 5 year manufacturers warranty.

Creating our Nutcracker
Quilts would not have been possible without
this pressing sheet.
Step One
- Trace off all your applique pattern
pieces onto a fusible webbing and
label so you know what each one is.
- Cut them roughly apart.
- Fuse these transferred pattern
pieces to your chosen fabrics
- Cut apart exactly on the pattern
lines.
- Take your pattern layout diagram
(as shown on the right) and place
it on your clean ironing board.
|
|
| Step Two
- Secure the pattern diagram to your
ironing board with straight pins
inserted at an angle or small pieces
of tape.
-
Place the Bear
Threads pressing sheet OVER the
layout diagram.
- You should be able to clearly see
the diagram underneath the sheet.
|  |
Step Three
- The the first fabric piece and
remove the paper backing protecting
the fusing.
- Lay that piece on-top of it's corresponding
piece on the diagram.
- Fuse down with your iron.
- Take the second fabric piece and
do the same thing
- Repeat these steps until all the
applique pattern pieces have been
used.
|
 |
Step Four
- Allow this completely fused together
applique to cool completely.
- Gently PEEL it
off of the pressing sheet.
- Place your fused applique on your
prepared quilt block, garment, or
fabric piece.
- Fuse into place.
- You may now satin stitch this applique
down.
- No movement, no realigning, no
basting.
Yes it IS just that easy.
