Floriani Press N Bond Fusible Thread at Linda’s Electric Quilters is a revolutionary specialty thread from RNK Distributing that bonds to fabric with the heat of an iron — eliminating the need for separate fusible web in many applique and no-sew applications. Simply sew your applique with this fusible thread in the bobbin, then fuse with an iron to bond the applique to the background fabric permanently.
How does Floriani Press N Bond fusible thread work?
Press N Bond is used in the bobbin of your sewing machine. When you sew around an applique shape with Press N Bond in the bobbin, the bobbin thread wraps around the edges of the shape. When pressed with a hot iron, the fusible thread melts and creates a permanent bond between the applique and the background fabric.
Do I still need fusible web with Press N Bond thread?
In many applique applications, Press N Bond thread eliminates the need for separate fusible web. The thread creates the bond directly when pressed. For multi-layer applique or very precise positioning, some quilters still use fusible web in combination with Press N Bond.
What projects work best with Floriani Press N Bond thread?
Press N Bond is ideal for machine applique, raw-edge applique, quilting projects with fabric embellishments, and any application where you want fabric pieces bonded to a background without visible stitching on the top of the applique.
Is Press N Bond thread available in one color?
Yes — Press N Bond fusible thread is typically available in a single natural or white color since it functions as the bonding agent rather than as a decorative thread element in the finished project.
