It's Sunday...it's hot...what to do?

I am going to try to sew today...after the cleaning of the house!
In my last post I gave you a glimpse into how I made a label for my quilt.
Since the day was so very hot I knew I would have trouble with the wonder under process...and I did!
Here is what I discovered...if you are familiar with wonder under you will understand.

the directions say to press onto the back of your fabric, let cool and peel.
Well, the peeling part did not go so well.
It was pulling all of the product off the back and leaving 'webby' like stuff behind.
So, I switched to a different roll of product with the same result.
THEN...I decided NOT to follow directions...
Pressed onto back of label
Peeled right away...while still hot...
PERFECT PEEL
PERFECT BACKING! 
My label adhered to the back of the quilt wonder-underfully!


So you see, in desperate times...HOT, STICKY WEATHER...
rules are made to be broken!

Stay cool and happy stitching!
