Hi there. Can someone(s) help me please with interfacing. I just finished a lunchbag for my daughter and since it had a lining I had to turn it inside out several times and the interfacing became completely wrinkled. I used an interfacing that wasn't too stiff. I have had this problem in the past so I wonder what I am doing wrong. Is there something else I could do to add firmness to my fabric without the wrinkling? Thank you so much Andrea |

Hi there. The only time I have problems with wrinkling is when my interfacing is a fusible. This really ticks me off. I think the heat of the iron has something to do with it, I probably don't have it hot enough but sometimes the fusible "glue" is not that great either. So, I always use a sew in type. MaryW

I've found the brand makes a difference. Dorothy |
