How to place the thermoadhesive strips to join punchies
Just because you like punching doesn't mean you like sewing ;) At the Lodge we use these double-sided thermo-adhesive strips that are pure magic to adhere your punchy to a fabric. Furthermore, its adhesion is superior to anything sewn.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Cut the iron-on paper according to the dimensions you need. For a 20cm punchy, cut 5x1cm strips.
- Preheat the iron to medium temperature, without steam.
- Place the adhesive (rough surface) on the fabric you want to join (the paper lining facing up).
- Place and hold the iron on the paper liner for 2 seconds. Repeat until you have joined the entire surface. Let it cool.
- Peel off the paper lining and place the second fabric on top of your project. Press and hold the iron for 8 seconds on each strip until the entire piece has been joined. (The times indicated here are for cotton. Iron only 6 seconds in case of light fabrics and thick fabrics during 2 seconds additional).
- Let cool for 30 minutes without touching your project so that the adhesive takes full effect.
