Description
Applique Fuse and Fix is OESD's double-sided sheet for machine-embroidered appliqué. One side is fusible and the other is sticky, so the appliqué fabric is backed and held in place without pins or spray adhesive. It can be stitched through without gumming up the needle, and it does not leave the finished appliqué feeling overly stiff.
Each package holds 20 white 8.5" x 11" sheets, a size that is easy to trace or cut appliqué shapes from. Use it with any design that has appliqué pieces. If you prefer a fusible web for hand-guided or quilt appliqué, Steam-A-Seam 2 is the comparable sticky, fusible option on a roll.

Compare and choose
- Which side of Fuse and Fix is fusible and which is sticky?
- One side has a fusible coating that bonds to fabric with an iron; the other side is sticky. Fuse the fusible side to the wrong side of your appliqué fabric, cut the shape, and the sticky side holds the piece where you place it while the tack-down stitching runs. Test iron heat on a scrap first.
- Fuse and Fix vs Steam-A-Seam 2: which should I use?
- Both are sticky and fusible. Fuse and Fix comes as letter-size sheets made for machine embroidery appliqué and stitches without gumming the needle. Steam-A-Seam 2 is a fusible web on a roll that quilters use for raw-edge and hand-guided appliqué. For in-the-hoop appliqué, Fuse and Fix is the purpose-made choice. Steam-A-Seam 2 12" x 3 yd
- Will it make my appliqué stiff?
- It is designed not to leave the appliqué feeling overly stiff. For the softest hand on large appliqué shapes, Lite Steam-A-Seam 2 or Mistyfuse are lighter fusible webs. Lite Steam-A-Seam 2 12" x 3 yd
- Is this a stabilizer, or do I still need one in the hoop?
- It backs and positions the appliqué fabric; it does not replace the hoop stabilizer. Hoop your base fabric with the tear-away or cut-away the fabric calls for, then add the appliqué pieces on top.
- How many appliqué pieces will a package make?
- It depends on the size of your shapes. Each package has 20 sheets at 8.5" x 11", so small motifs can be nested several to a sheet.
