NOW I remember why I hate that stuff. I just had the weirdest thing happen
while using it.
I am appliqueing a cotton/linen blend midweight fabric and used the ultra
bond, the thread is Gutermann cotton thread. The first two appliques went fine-
a total dream; I was using plain cone thread for that. I switch to the
Gutermann, and all hell breaks loose. The satin stitch starts skipping stitches
and the needle is gummed up with sticky goop. I have to clean off my needle
roughly once an inch. Nothing had changed from one pair to the other, except
the thread and the weather. I was ripping my hair out trying to figure out what
the problem was. The best we could come up with was the slight rise in humidity
with the new weather front has caused the heat n bond to soften. I even tried
to dry it with a hot iron, but that didn't work, either.
Anyone else have this happen, and is there anything I can do to make it stop??

assist you in denying who you are, but not indelibly reshape you to their own
