Re: Craf Tex Lite question-Marrisa pattern (posted on 10/30/14 3:01 PM ET)
I bought the Marissa bag pattern. I hope it's not too advanced, I should be fine with it. I make small things, and I knit and cross stitch also. The instructions call for a quarter yard Craf Tex lite. It doesn't indicate it's fusible. Is Craf Tex Lite sew in interfacing?

I have never used Craft Tex lite or any Bonsal product. It is indeed a sew-in interfacing. I use Pellon Decor Bond in some parts of the purses and bags I make. It is a one sided medium weight fusible. I also use Pellon Thermolamb Plus as fusible batting for quilted purses.

Thanks, I need some medium weight for a project bag. I'll get some Pellon today. I think I have some sew in heavy weight, but I've never used sew in before.
