Texture Magic

Texture Magic is taking the quilting/sewing world by storm. When Superior Threads came out with this product earlier this year, we could not keep it in stock. While we were at Quilts Canada, my daughter Rhonda and daughter in law Erica, decided to play with it while making some owl stuffies.

Texture comes in different sizes/widths. This is one of the smaller sizes the girls played with.
First you mark a pattern on the magic. Rhonda first measured/drew a grid pattern. On the second one she winged it.



Next, you layer the texture magic and your fabric. The girls went with the option of adding batting into their fabric sandwich for a bit more puff as well. Than you quilt it.



Now the fun part.
You hold the iron just above and steam away; the fabric shrinks right up. The instructions said it would shrink up to 30%.



Once you are done shrinking, you can put the fabric into a bag, a pillow or clothing. The girls continued with making their stuffies. They came out pretty cute.
