Peeling Off the Material (Excluding Quilt Piecing) After cutting the material, use a spatula to peel off the fabric together with the attached contact sheet.
Note
• Do not wash fabrics attached together with a double-sided adhesive contact sheet. • When attaching fabrics with the double-sided adhesive, iron carefully, being sure that the material and adhesive surfaces are properly heat-set. • When attaching fabrics of different weights with the double-sided adhesive, first iron the lighter- weight fabric to affix the contact sheet. • When attaching fabric with an iron-on sheet attached or paper to the mat, cleanly peel off the support sheet from the mat, or attach the material to a different standard tack adhesive mat without a support sheet attached.

Note • Do not place anything heated on the fabric attached with a contact sheet. Adhesive will permeate any other pieces of fabric around. • When peeling off the material, insert the spatula as level as possible into the space between the material and mat. Strongly rubbing the adhesive side of the mat may damage it. Attaching Fabrics With the Double- Sided Adhesive Place a cutout on a base fabric and apply pressure on the top of the cutout using an iron. (The contact sheet may not adhere well to some fabrics.) Hand or machine stitch to ensure that the cutout stays in place.
