Heat & Bond

 It's time to try something new. Husband bought this 22mm ultrahold iron-on adhesive HEATnBOND
for the newly arrived draperies ordered from Amazon. Instead of sewing it using the sewing machine he wants to try without sewing the edge of the draperies (curtain).

 He followed the instruction provided through the back of the Heat n Bond.

Then the ironing starts...

It didn't work! I think it doesn't work on heavy material. The heavy, thick material of such fabric for that curtain with that Heat n Bond? Forget it.

I decided to just hem the edges using grey thread and sharp needle. It's a needle and thread process, the hemingway, lol.

Maybe that heat and bond will work appropriately and properly on light fabric materials only.
Well, something works perfectly and sometimes not. The draperies are for our tenant's glass windows.
