#3912 Heat'n Bond Iron-On Vinyl -17"X5 Yards Gloss

I'm making handbags and oil cloth and laminated fabric is just too costly to purchase. So I tried this and I can't believe it worked. So now I can use any fabric I want for handbags and I don't have to worry about them getting dirty. It is crispy and feels like your fabric is paper so it's odd. Sure a thicker fabric might feel better but I Used a light one. Also was scared to sew it because if I made a mistake and had to undo my stitching, scared it would tear. So far no mistakes... WHEEW. Also haven't tried to iron over it in the areas needed to for smoothing out my seam lines. Almost finished so I will see if I will be stocking up on some more of this product. Need to figure out how I will smooth out my areas because I'm not sure if it will melt. It does slide a lot when trying to apply it to your fabric so you need to be careful and make sure it is on right before you apply it with the iron. Maybe cut it a little bigger but have something under it so you don't melt it onto your ironing board. Or more easy is to cut it smaller. Other than getting it to stay still where you want it, it is very easy and fast to apply. Haven't made anything that needs a wash from the washer and dryer so not sure how that would work out. Just use double sided tape to hold your seams if sewing and do not use pins as you might get holes you can't close of course.

This was a great deal for the length of vinyl that you get compared to the iron-on vinyl I found by the yard at Walmart. I've been using it to make makeup bags with an easy to wipe lining. It's super easy to use and looks great on the finished product. Also, when you're turning your project and the vinyl gets a bit wrinkly, all you have to do is heat it up again and it'll be back to looking glossy and new! The only thing I'm not crazy about is that the finished product has a crinkly sound...maybe it won't after it's broken in a bit, though. :)

I am so glad to have found this stuff and I wish I had learned about it sooner. You can make most fabrics water resistant by simply ironing this onto them. (If you are sewing, you will need to bond this to the fabric before you construct the garment). Just think of the possibilities...place mats, rain hats, totes....I'm thinking it may even be perfect for recovering the seat of a kitchen chair. Will definitely be a staple in my craft basket.

Used in making durable fairy wings for Ren faire. Bit of a learning curve to not make bubbles in the vinyl, but I like how they turned out.

I used this iron on vinyl in the Clam Up bags. Works Great. As for durability, don't know. Making Christmas gifts. Easy to use. Love the size I bought. Works well, paper backed and peels off easily.

I really liked working with the iron on vinyl. I haven't worked with it before. I did notice that it slid a lot on my machine. Also, you can't use pins with it. If you try to pin it, the little holes will stay. You need to use small clips instead. It is a little thinner than I thought it would be, but still, very cool. I made a diaper bag for a friend of mine with some cotton fabric that I ironed this product on to. She loved it! I need more already :)

I bought the 17"x 2 yards also, but this is a better price. Very fast shipping, awesome product! I got this to make a changing pad for my diaper bag and it's awesome. Not only did I make a changing pad, I made a few wet bags, a pad for under the high chair and some changing pads for a few friends. It's easy to use and adheres to fabric great. I recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and easy craft. You can use it to make table cloths and placemats too. I just chose the fabric that I liked, cut it to the size I wanted, placed the iron on vinyl over top and with a cloth in between the vinyl and the iron, slowly ironed it onto the fabric. You don't have to cut the vinyl to fit exactly because once it's ironed on its easy to trim the excess. I absolutely love this stuff! The price is cheaper than any of my local craft stores which is a huge plus.

Just what I needed and expected.
