d Firmly attach all of the material to the mat so
that there are no wrinkles and no part can curl
off.
Otherwise, curls in the material may become
caught when the mat is inserted.
Note
If the mat is dirty, clean it. For details, see
“Cleaning the Mat” on page 78.
Peeling Off the Material (Paper)
After cutting the material, use a spatula to slowly
peel off the paper.
a Spatula
Fabric (Other Than for Quilt Piecing)
a Standard mat
b Iron-on fabric appliqué contact sheet (white
backing)
Attaching the Material (Fabric Other
Than for Quilt Piecing)
Iron the specially designed contact sheet to the
back of fabrics for any use other than quilt
piecing, and then attach them to the standard
mat.
The double-faced adhesive type of the iron-on
fabric appliqué contact sheet reinforces the fabric
and enables any pattern to be cut easily,
including appliqués.
The sheet cannot be removed once it has been
attached to the back of fabrics. For quilt piecing,
use the high tack adhesive fabric support sheet
and avoid using the iron-on fabric appliqué
contact sheet.
Note
The contact sheet may not adhere to a fabric
surface that is so rough that the two surfaces
cannot be heat-set to adhere to each other.
a Peel off the protective sheet from the adhesive
side of the standard mat.
Note
Do not discard the protective sheet peeled off
the mat; save it for later use.
In order to maintain the adhesive strength,
attach the protective sheet to the adhesive side
of the mat after use.
When the mat is not being used, clean the
adhesive side and affix the protective sheet
before storing it. For details, see “Cleaning the
Mat” on page 78.
