What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Happy Friday! We’ve made it through another week!

In yesterday’s post, I wrote all about Odif 505 Temporary Fabric Adhesive and Odif AntiStatic spray products.

Today, last, but not least, I’ll showcase Odif Fabric Protect and Odif OdiCoat products.

Most of us have experienced having quilt colors fade when left on a bed that’s exposed to too many UV rays. This has been a never-ending problem with quilts made of 100% cotton fabrics. Odif Fabric Protect has quilters and fabric artists in mind, all other products I’m aware of ...

Good morning, I’m happy you came back for more great Odif product demonstrations.

For some of you, yesterday’s post was a reinforcement of your prior knowledge, while for others it was a new introduction to Odif 606 Iron on Adhesive and Odif DK5 Glue Remover.

Today, I’ll introduce (or reintroduce for some of you), Odif 505 Temporary Fabric Adhesive spray (505 for short) and Odif AntiStatic Anti-static electricity spray.

Odif 505 is a product I’ve been using for years. Over those years, I’ve learned a few ...

On Monday and Tuesday of this week I showed you some of the ways to use four Odif labor-saving spray-on products:

• 404 Repositionable Craft Adhesive
• Fabric Booster Fabric Stabilizer
• 808 Paper Pattern Adhesive
• Grippy Non-slip Coating

Today, I’ll introduce two more products from Odif to make your quilting and crafting life easier.

When working on a project, there are lots of great tools and products to use to help us achieve the desired result. While working on an applique quilt like the one I’m doing this week, the Odif line ...

Yesterday, I demonstrated a couple of ways to use Odif 808 Spray and Fix Temporary Adhesive for Paper Patterns and Fabric Booster sprays while working on an applique project.

Today, I’ll look at two more great Odif products: 404 Repositionable Craft Adhesive and Grippy Non-slip Coating.

I’ll start with the Odif 404 Repositionable Craft Adhesive (404 for short). When I first found out about 404, I was transported back to 1985 when Post-it notes made their debut in my life. The link between these products is simple. The ...

I hereby dedicate this whole week to Odif adhesive spray products every quilter needs to have in their quilting space.

For many of you, the name Odif may not ring a bell, but if I say 505 basting spray, I’m sure many of you know what I’m talking about.

Well, Odif is the company that makes our much loved 505 Temporary Fabric Adhesive (basting spray). Odif also makes many other labor-saving products I was unaware even existed 18 months ago! Since I found out about these new products, I’ve made it my mission to learn more about ...

Hello and Happy Friday! All week, I’ve been demonstrating how to make The Library Tote and Date Night Clutch using BOSAL In-R-Form Double Sided Fusible Stabilizer. Yesterday, it was all about applying Bosal In-R-Form and hardware, such as the zipper, the magnetic snap, and anchor straps, to the clutch.

I promise you it’s easy, there are just many small steps. The lining is completely ready to go with a discrete faced zipper pocket, anchor straps and a magnetic snap. The straps for the bag are already made and set aside.

Today, I want to talk about the sides ...

Yesterday we made the strap anchors and the strap for this modern and professional-looking Date Night Clutch made with the Bosal In-R-Form Double Sided Fusible  Stabilizer, refer to yesterday’s post if you’re just joining us today.

Now it’s time to make the faced zipper I promised. What’s really nice about this zipper is it’s neat and tidy and hides a pocket where all the private stuff needed in a bag can be hidden. I find a zippered pocket always handy as it is a secure place to put things so they cannot slip out of ...

Happy Wednesday! Yesterday I finished off making the library tote. Today and over the next few days, I’ll discuss how to make a smaller clutch bag with the Bosal In-R-Form stabilizer. This compact Date Night Clutch bag looks like it has been purchased in a store all because the Bosal In-R-Form gives such polished, structured results.

I’ll also share how to make a zipper facing so that the zipper is embedded in the lining (looks oh so gorgeous) with a hidden pocket and how to make removable straps with D rings and swivel hook toggles. This time I ...

I hope you stopped by yesterday to see the beginning of The Library Tote bag, Bosal In-R-Form Adds Great Structure to Bags. Materials needed and cutting instructions along with a great method of making handles for this bag are included in yesterday’s post.

Today, I’ll demonstrate how easy it is to make a hanging pocket, inserting a magnetic snap and finishing this easy, handy bag for busy lifestyles.

Press the fusible woven interfacing, fusible side down to one end of the pocket piece (green as shown).

This week I’m talking all about Bosal In-R-Form, a fantastic foam product to stabilize sewing and allow sewists to have very professional structured results. I have used it many times with many projects including bags, backpacks, quilt as you go placemats, baskets, bowls, lunch bags and more.

What’s really cool about it is:

• It’s a foam product that provides a sturdy look and feel to projects giving them a professional finish.
• It provides strength to straps and handles and the projects itself.
• It looks and feels soft so projects do not ...
