Troubleshooting
Interfacing is not adhering properly.
Ensure the iron is at the correct temperature for the fabric. Increase the ironing time and pressure. Make sure the fabric is clean and free of any treatments that could affect adhesion. Test the interfacing on a scrap of fabric first.
Interfacing is bubbling or lifting after application.
Reduce the heat setting. Apply even pressure across the entire surface and avoid moving the iron too quickly. Ensure the fabric has cooled completely before handling.
Interfacing is visible through the fabric.
Use a lighter-weight interfacing or choose a color that blends better with the fabric. Test the interfacing on a scrap of fabric first to see if it shows through.
