Perfect fit
I used this for a church project, it gave it just the right pop to look elegant without breaking the bank.

Was exactly what we needed.
Paid a little more for two rolls than my wife paid for one at the sew shop. Shipping was a little slower than we would have liked but was worth the wait. All in all, very happy with the product and seller.

Works like a charm!
This product was a lifesaver. Used it for making a Stained Glass Quilt.

Some fusing problems but I am sold on this product. Black was excellent to use
I am reviewing the Gold Fusible tape. First of all there is no way I could make a bias tape this small and this perfect. I am making a stained glass xmas tree skirt with lots of curves and it is going on nicely and is a dream to work with. However, having said that, I used the clover iron and gave the product 4 stairs because I had difficulty fusing the tape to my cotton project. If the iron gets hot enough to activate the fusible the Gold poly tape melts. So fusing was hit or miss until I remembered that I had some Aleene's No-Sew from a different project. A little dab of glue along the leading lines and the the tape held beautifully. It looks fantastic, goes on smoothly and I'm sure one of the cotton colors would fuse without a problem. This tape takes the curves and makes nice clean points. This is the first time I have used it and I am sold. I purchased 2 rolls initially and just ordered 2 more. 11 yards sounds like a lot of tape, but these projects use more than you think, I ran out mid project and will have to wait for my order to arrive. Otherwise I would have finished it tonight.I had to redo some of my sewing a year later, and reordered it from Amazon. Fastest shipping and better price than JoAnn with a coupon. This time I didn't even try to iron the gold. The rolls I received this time had some adhesive, so I finger pressed them in place and pinned for security. I also placed a piece and then sewed it immediately and didn't try to place all the pieces and then sew.Update on Review: I purchased the black fusible bias. The product is excellent and much easier to use than the lame. Takes a hot iron without a problem and has good adherence. It should be noted that you do have to sew in in place for permanent use. Watch your seller timeline. I ordered this product and it took from August 12th when I placed the order to Sept 1 to get the order. To be honest the seller gave a longer delivery time line, but I never thought it would take this long. Although when delivered it had a NJ post mark , it originally came from overseas and that it why it took so long.

doesn't stay stuck
Easy to use but doesn't stay stuck to project. Has to be sewn down to be permanent. shipped and delivered promptly.

Adhesive fail.
This product had some downfalls with the adhesive heating bond. There were places that had to be glued down with fabric glue.

Great for covering crooked top-stitching
Clover must be one of those companies that say to themselves, "what do people who sew need to make life easier"? I purchased the black version of this 1/4" tape to play around with some stained glass looks for quilts. Today, I was working on a handbag, and my topstitching around some small curved tabs was crooked. The fabric was twill, and I thought taking out that stitching would be a mess and probably never look right. I was about ready to start over on the tabs, and all of a sudden I thought - cover the stitching with a strip of folded bias!! And, coincidentally, I had the ready-made Clover bias handy. Worked like a charm, and my handbag is now enhanced with an unintended design element. This tape is easy to work with, and it does indeed stick to the fabric when pressed so you can sew over it.

Fast Arrival
I am working on a project and like to have all items to hand before they are required. In this case I was advised to use this product. It arrived promptly and is exactly what was advised. I have yet to use it properly, but have had a trial run with the tape - it seems fine and I am sure it will do very nicely for the project in hand. It appears to be of good quality.

good bias tape
Never used something like this before, but it is not too difficult to use.It can be ironed into place but it is better to sew it afterwards.I have not finished the project yet, so I do not know if washing is okay.

Good quality and easy to use
Very easy to use, slightly tacky when you peel of the backing so it stays in place while you iron it on but you can still reposition it if you need to. Delighted with the results. It does seem expensive but you get a lot on a roll, I was able to make a Christmas wall hanging and a cushion and still have some left but was so pleased with it I have brought a second roll for next time.

Arrived very quickly
Easy to use - loved it for my stained glass picture. The fact that you can iron it on just makes for a really neat finish. The same fact also makes it a little stiff but I had no problem with the curves. Good product. May be a little expensive for a large project.

Forget the pinning of tape!
Used making a stained glass effect quilt. Love the ease of sticking on and being able to manipulate into correct place and then sew ( machine or hand) value for money as lasts to make several items.
