Steam a Seam 2 is what I used. It keeps the edge of the velvet appliques I worked on, fused permanently when I wanted it, was easy enough to sew through without getting the needle sticky, and comes highly recommended by embroidery artists and quilt artists I know. Those artists are the ones who recommend the #2 version, not the regular version. They say the #2 version is lighter, and less likely to gum your needles. But try both and see what works best for you. http://www.warmcompany.com/saspage.html It comes in sheets, and in thin rolls of various widths. I use the roll SaS2 for holding down trims before sewing. I really like this stuff.
