Fusible (iron on) interfacing bonds fabrics together. It is quick and easy to use and provides shape, stability and structure to garments, selvedges and handmade fabric/knitted bags, and enhances durability. This product is used in buttonhole areas to keep them from stretching and distorting, in collars and cuffs to add crispness, and in handmade bags/facings to give stability. In dressmaking, it allows the garment to retain the shape that is built in during the construction process. Interfacings can be either fusible (iron-on) or non-fusible/sewn-in (sew in), and are available in three different weights: Light, medium and heavy. Applying fusible interfacing requires a little patience and is generally regarded as an easier choice for beginners than the non-fusible version. If you are using special fabrics, such as highly textured, open weave lace/mesh, metallic, seersucker, sequinned, velvet, fur, beaded, or vinyl, the best option is a sew-in interlining.
