I want to use this to baste a minky backing to a non washable silk and lace crazy quilt top. Would there be a problem if the 505 we're not washed out

I can't see why this would be a problem. There is no odor soon after use, no noticeable thickening of the material. Use a light, evenly applied spray, and be prepared to wash oversprayed surfaces...they become sticky.

Yes. I washed and dried with no problem. Due to size of quilt I went to a laundromat.

Yes, I've washed mine twice now with no effect. I do use only warm water and then permanent press on the cycles--I air dry the quilt a bit before I put it in the dryer, too.

I would say yes. We don't wash ours but keep in duvet covers however; so if you've no issue with washing it it should be done. It's comparable IMHO to a light thin quilt.

Yes,I have used it to sew a quilt top together because it stitches a seam and overlocks at the same time. It is especially good for knit fabric. :-)

You are supposed to be able to use it as is. However, a cloth leader is recommended as a time-saving product to help attach the fabric to the frame. I have purchased cloth leader kit but have not used it yet as I am currently finishing several other quilting projects. I have assembled the frame and plan to use it for my next project.

I have only used it with quilting cotton fabrics. I think it will work well on any weight cotton but silky fabrics may be a problem.

Definitely. Don't use fabric softener but it can surely be washed and dried as any towel. NO FABRIC SOFTENER.

Unless the material is a fine fabric or if your using a wet spray, it shouldnt bother the clothes. The quilt look is flatter than you can see just from the picture.

I use it for thick layers. I take it to quilting class and I just finished a denim quilt made from old jeans

I have not had a problem using my machine for that type of fabric. I did small projects though. I would say so long as you are using the right thread, needle and tension you should be ok.

Yes. I purchased this iron specifically for quilting projects and I am extremely pleased with the performance. It does go through a lot of water, though, when steaming! Many quilters do not use the "steam" feature, but I do. This iron was recommended to me from a fellow quilter. Hope this answers any of your concerns!

I haven't tried it but if you get the product Terial Magic and use that to stiffen the fabric before cutting, it should work. I've been using that stiffener for felt and cotton and it works great.

I would not use this product on its own (ie without stitching into place) if the pieces will be washed. Maybe the non lite version would hold in this wash! I have not used the non lite, however!

On the felt that I used yes! I tried it on some netting and it does well. To cut fabric, the only thing I can see that would hinder it is if you do not have the fabric down in a manner not to allow the blade to move well. I have made a quilt using the Disappearing Nine Patch. I know after I sew the nine patch back together for second or third or fourth cuts, The problem is the build up the layers of fabric and thread at the seams. That is why, I say with confidence, as long as you have your fabric down correctly on a good cutting board there should be no problem. I have had no problems. On the felt that I used yes!

Hi Matt, I am not that far on my quilt to know for sure. But I am planning on using it with my machine. It looks like the person in the picture shown using in it is using a regular sewing machine. So when I get this far with my quilt I will be winging it. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Yes they will but do you really want to wash and dry a down quilt? I didn't think down was washable. Please check the manufacturer's label on the quilt for cleaning instructions.
