I just bought a design which requires wonder under. (fusable webbing) my experience in the past has been horrible..It gums up the needle and stitching is a nightmare..Any insight using this product would help..TIA

I use it to back my material for appliques it has worked wonderful.....before I used it, the material frayed...Hope this helps....I got the idea from a help session on Designs by Sick....

Are you saying you iron the wonder under to your fabric to be appliqued and then use it the normal way? Sounds like a good idea. I've not done a lot of applique because I didn't think it would hold up to washing.

Hi Kathy, I've never used wonderunder for embroidery, but I was told once that the gum from the glue adheres to the needle, so I've never used it for anything but none sewing projects. Or hand work. I do know there are different types, so you might want to see if there is one for sewing projects.
