Yesterday, we finished cutting our circles with the TRUECUT 360 Circle Cutter, and some of you may have used ODIF 404 Spray and Fix Permanent Repositionable Adhesive to keep the fabric from shifting.
Odif 404 spray and fix permanent repositionable adhesive, and the TrueCut 360 Circle Cutter
There are three steps to be completed today.
The first is to apply ODIF 606 Spray and Fix No-sew Fusible Adhesive Web on all the donuts.
Find a large piece of cardboard. Place a donut face down on the cardboard, then spray a light coating of Odif 606 onto the fabric.
Applying Odif 606 to the wrong side of the donut.
Repeat the above step on all nine donuts.
Once all donuts have been sprayed with Odif 606, move on to the 2nd step. I would do this step at the ironing board.
Two days ago, I asked that nine 12½” x 12½” background squares be cut. Place and center a donut, right side up, on each background square. The donut should be 1¼” from each edge.
Using a high heat setting, press for 30 – 45 seconds, keeping the iron moving at all times. When finished, I always do a quick check with my fingernail to make sure the donut is well adhered to the fabric. Be sure to read the directions on the can before using it for the first time.
Adhedonut a donut to a background square.
On each circle fabric square, draw an X. Each line of the X should be about four to six inches long. This should be done on the wrong side of the fabric. For this demonstration, I’ve drawn the X on the right side so it’s more visible in the photo.
The completed quilt top resembles a tic-tac-toe board.
The star of the day was definitely the ODIF 606 Spray and Fix No-sew Fusible Adhesive Web. Once pressed in place it will not move.
Odif 606 Spray no-sew Fusible Adhesive Web is a must-have tool!
Tomorrow, we’ll complete the quilt, and I’ll share a few ideas for games to play with it. Join me!
