Bo-Nash 2-Ounce Fusible Bonding Agent

I tried using a basting spray once and absolutely hated everything about life and the world around me during that process. The fumes, the stickiness that got everywhere due to overspray, the complexity of having to spray, then wait, then attach the pieces, etc., were all terrible.Then, I saw this product mentioned in a random YouTube video and I decided I MUST try it. And I am so incredibly happy that I did!!! No fumes, no mess, no overspray, no weird waiting time between applying it to the fabrics before fusing the fabrics together, and very good control on how much or how little you use.In the past I have considered using fusible batting, but honestly I never did because they're all made with polyester (or at least, all the ones I found were) and I prefer a thin cotton, bamboo, or cotton/bamboo blend batting. I don't like polyester batting at all. But with this lovely basting powder I can now easily use the batting I love and have the security of an adhesive basting rather than relying on my not-so-awesome pin basting for keeping my pieces tight and flat as I put them together.I am incredibly happy with this purchase and will absolute purchase again, and again, and again until the day I stop quilting.

This product has helped me fix my finite quilt. Great stuff! Highly recommend. It was pricey though. I think it could cost less.

I was very skeptical but I have a friend who needed some sweatpants and a sheet repaired. I used a fabric shaver on the inside of the sweatpants to make the patch and was able to repair all the burn holes that were in the sweatpants. I also used it with a piece of fabric to make a patch for a top sheet where her puppy had chewed a hole in it. So far all the patches have held up in the wash and the ones in the sweatpants are very hard to see unless you are actually holding them up close. The patch in the sheets showed because I didn't have matching fabric so I fussy cut a piece of fabric that had a puppy on it and now she has a puppy patch instead of a puppy chew hole. LOL :) I will be using this for all my repairs, I already had a pressing sheet but I bought an extra pressing sheet so I have one on top and one on bottom just to make it even easier and I don't have to try to fold one over the top of whatever I am trying to repair. The Bo-Nash pressing sheets are amazing too!

I ordered this product to use on a quilt I needed to baste together. I did not want to use spray adhesive because of how messy it gets. This product is very easy to use and will stick permanently when ironed so be very careful where you sprinkle it. When I prepared all three QUILTS layers, I pulled back the top layer of my quilt and lightly sprinkled this on the batting then folded over the top quilt piece and ironed carefully. It’s stuck very well and I suggest basting your project in sections at a time. Do not sprinkle on what you do not want to glue down. Vacuum up whatever falls on the floor or your ironing board. This product sticks only when you iron it between 2 pieces of fabric. This is a permanent glue that will not wash out of your quilt. Safe for baby QUILTS too. This was confirmed by a customer service representative. I would recommend getting the larger shaker container. This product looks like salt, so it’s very difficult to see where you’re sprinkling it on especially if the fabric is light colored. I wish it was colored so you can see where you sprinkle it. This is a better alternative to spray adhesive. Sadly its not budget friendly, but overall I would recommend this product.

This powder requires a Bo-Nash fiberglass sheet, so where is it? Why not put one in the box along with the 5"x8" instruction sheet? At least they could tell you up front you have to buy the things.

I told everybody in my office about this. The most annoying thing is my sleeves falling down after folding them up. A few sprinkles and the iron, I have a tack that leaves my sleeves in place.

I recently tried this on a quilt sandwich and it worked great! I followed the very good directions and sprinkled it on the batting, topped off with the backing and used a Teflon sheet to press. I used a regular old iron on high. Flipped it over and repeated with the top. I only have a regular sized ironing board so I had to do it section by section. A 25x40” wall hanging took about 10-15 minutes to complete. I will definitely use again!

Does not work very well. If all the little granules do not melt they get all over everywhere. Tried using this for several projects with simple quilting cottons. None held well enough to not need lots of pins. In one case I gave up and used my spray adhesive which works wonderfully.
