Product Description
Hemline Non-Stick Appliqué Mat
Reusable Teflon Pressing Sheet for Fusible Web
Protect your iron and achieve crisp, clean appliqué with the Hemline Non-Stick Appliqué Mat. This reusable Teflon (PTFE) pressing sheet provides a smooth, heat-resistant barrier between your iron and any adhesive—ideal when bonding fusible web to most fabrics. At 31 × 30 cm (12.2" × 11.8"), it’s a practical size for everyday quilt blocks, bag panels, small garments and home décor pieces.
The mat’s non-stick surface prevents stray glue and fusible residue from transferring to your iron or pressing board. Place it over your work—or sandwich your project between two sheets for double-sided protection—then press as usual. Adhesives release cleanly from the Teflon finish, so edges remain sharp and fabrics stay unmarred. A quick wipe once cool removes any remaining specks, ready for the next task.
Quilters will appreciate the control it brings to raw-edge appliqué, layered motifs and bias-tape placement. Build shapes on the sheet first, fuse them into a neat unit, and then transfer to the background fabric for final positioning and press—no sticky soleplate, no ghost marks. For bag making and accessories, the mat is equally useful when applying fusible foam, interfacings and webbing reinforcements, keeping glue off the iron while you work inside tight seams. In home décor sewing, it’s a reliable aid for curtain headers, cushion closures and trims where hot-melt adhesive is used.
Crafted from quality PTFE, the sheet lies flat, resists warping and maintains an even heat transfer for consistent bonds. The pale, lightly translucent surface lets you see your placement without visual clutter, supporting accurate alignment over printed patterns or grid mats. Rounded corners reduce snagging; the flexible hand rolls or stores flat in a drawer.
Quietly capable and long-lasting, the Hemline Non-Stick Appliqué Mat earns a permanent place beside the iron. It safeguards tools, supports precise workmanship and helps your finishes look as careful as your piecing.
Other Details
How makers use it
- Bond fusible web (paper-backed adhesive) to appliqué fabrics without residue.
- Protect the iron during glue-based techniques, patches, badges and repairs.
- Fuse interfacings and stabilisers cleanly, preventing build-up on the soleplate.
- Assemble layered appliqué motifs on the mat, then transfer and fuse to the base fabric.
- Shield delicate fabrics while testing heat settings for new adhesives.
Practical tips
- Test on a small scrap first to confirm the correct heat and pressing time.
- Allow pieces to cool fully before peeling to keep edges clean and crisp.
- Once cool, wipe the sheet with a soft cloth to remove any specks of residue.
- Store flat or rolled; avoid folding to preserve the non-stick surface.
