2) Next, another layer of MistyFuse. Sprinkle on more stuff,
Protect your iron by covering with parchment before ironing:

4) When your collage is done, top with a layer of MistyFuse and a single layer of netting, tulle, etc:
See next post for final product.
My friend Jo loves MistyFuse. I didn't care for it all that much. It drapes really well, but I like my fuser to be stiffer so it's not always making wrinkles or scooching out of place. I'd use MistyFuse again, but wouldn't pay more for it than WonderUnder.

This is really cool, Helen!
I think MF is great for this kind of collagey, layered, fabric-making kind of project. But, you're right. WU is great in most circumstances (and only $1 at Walmart).
