OUR INTERFACING?
Support and stabilize your fabric with our Emmaline brand fusible woven cotton interfacing.
We have 3 weights of all purpose, woven, fusible, interfacing suitable for a range of weights of cotton, wool, faux leather, or knit fabric. These work very well to stiffen and add structure to exterior/interior bag outers & linings, pockets, or garments.
