What is Texture Magic?

tmlogo

It's a new way to play with fabric that adds interest and fun to just about any quilt project.

Texture Magic is a polyester product from Superior Threads. There are four simple steps to using it:


  1. Sew the texture magic to the back of any fabric. Use a crosshatch pattern, a meander stipple, or any pattern you want.
  2. With the Texture Magic side up, apply steam and watch the magic happen.
  3. As the steam shrinks the Texture Magic, it "texturizes" the fabric on the front. It's important that you continue to steam until the texture magic backing is flat to get the full effect of texturing the fabric.
  4. Cut the texterized fabric to the block size you need and sew it into your project, such as the large conehead on the flower to the left.
  5. This stuff is washable and dry-cleanable and adaptable just about anywhere. Once in the quilt, the hand of the fabric no heavier than flat fabric.

Texture Magic Samples


This is a purse I made with texturized fabric

tote

Serenity Purse

This purse patterns has a very elegant look. You stitch long the pattern in the fabric for your texturizing lines.



baby quilt

The 8 blue blocks in this baby quilt have been texturized, the rest stippled. I think a baby would enjoy the feel of the bubbly blocks.

If you include batting between the fabric and the Texture Magic before stitching, the result is a softer texture.

Coneflower

This wallhanging is stenciled using Shiva Paintstiks. The large conehead was made with texturized fabric.
