Craft Question - 2/5/2007 3:00:13 PM

Status: offline 		I'm starting a project where I need to be able to slightly stiffen silk fabric.
I need it to be clear and not make the colors of the fabric run in any way.
It also needs to be lightweight.  The fabric itself will be in small pieces not in large sections.
Anyone know of any product that would do this?
Thanks

Status: offline 		If you were using any other fabric but silk.....silk is touchy, I'd be leery of putting anything wet on it, since it stains so easily.  (Go ahead, make comments). 

I think the lightweight iron-on interfacing would be the better way to go, used with a dry iron, not on steam setting.  Or, if you check at the fabric store, they might be able to recommend something better.

Status: offline 		The only problem with the interfacing is that the fabric is going to be seen from both sides.  I'm making a silk mobile with wire and silk as the only two materials.  I think I may have to just do trial and error.

Status: offline 		Perhaps you should build a rigid frame and then stretch the silk over the frame. Roll the silk around the edges and glue it to itself.

They're going to be in the shape of Japanese Maple leaves...so intricate.

And my aereolas are beautifully round, thank you very much.

Status: offline 		I'm not positive on the spelling but craft stores carry a whole line of products by Alene [sp?] for fabric. Not just iron on adhesive but sprays n such, they may  have something that is transparent and permanent.
