Many int. have to be ironed at high temperatures. Two other things that can happen:<br />1. Your iron is on the fabric too long (10-30 seconds depending on manufacturers instructions).<br />2. If you go over an area you already did it can bubble and wrinkle. Multiple passes cause the adhesive to stop working.

I really like how you added that loop for keys, I might have to do that to the next bag I make.<BR/><BR/>I don't own the bend the rules book, so for the ones that I made I didn't actually use the pattern from the book. I ended up drafting my own pattern, so the size is different from the book. Just reading the measurements from your post, the ones that I have made have been smaller than yours & the books.Chara Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05926939092444669480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-2749655048078962572008-03-18T23:38:00.000-05:002008-03-18T23:38:00.000-05:00Love the bag, I have been wanting to try that patt...Love the bag, I have been wanting to try that pattern, maybe now I will.

I think I'm in love. I have a 1968 Singer golden touch and sew that was my grandmother's that I'm basically terrified of. I come fomra long line of women who can sew blindfolded, it's a lot to live up to. I just started playing with the machine this week because I just love quilts and am determined to figure it all out. call it a 2008 goal of sorts. which led me to craftzine, which led me to your blog, as I said and yeah, I think I'm in love. you're writing is so clear. I'd love to be in on your pinwheel quilt a long. I'll be checking back to see when it starts. And I'm adding you to my blogroll, I hope that's okay.* elizabeth *https://www.blogger.com/profile/10396838227827068803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-5227871642189120782008-03-12T20:44:00.000-05:002008-03-12T20:44:00.000-05:00That's a really cute bag - I LOVE the fabric!

When I made my first bag, that totally happened to me. <BR/><BR/>I read somewhere that the wrinkling can happen if the iron on interfacing you're using is of a heavier weight than the fabric. The fabric will have more drape, so when it starts to want to flex or whatever, the interfacing will resist this and the fabric will shift slightly and result in that gross crispy wrinkling.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-20670839350556594432008-03-12T01:13:00.000-05:002008-03-12T01:13:00.000-05:00Great bags, great fabric, awesome pleats - I love ...Great bags, great fabric, awesome pleats - I love it all !Jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924653077212971448noreply@blogger.com
