It's like a film you apply to the fabric, and when you apply heat to it, the fabric wrinkles up.

Wow it sounds like wondeful stuff i would like to see something made with it ??? carolyn

Me too! I'd love to see something made with it.

I got my Designs in Machine Embroidery magazine recently and there is an ad in it that covers this subject rather well - it is from Jenny Haskins and it talks about Krinkle Magic and 3D Magic.

Thanks for your reply. I will go check them out.

You know? I almost sent you a PM asking you. I had this feeling that you would know... :) Thanks

It sounds like you have found what your are looking for. I have used the Texture Magic and it really is lots of fun. Be sure to have a good steam going on your iron for best results. I used mine in some small purses and it gave a nice texture. You can order in on line form several places-Superior Threads and JHitte Wholesale sewing supplies are a couple

Thank you so much... do you have any pictures of the results you would like to share?

What type of fabric did you use?

I only know a product that's called krimpvoering in Dutch, which translates as 'shrink lining'. It's not a plactic film but a lining that you have to stitch to the back of your fabric in a pattern, when heat is applied it shrinks, either 15% or 30% depending on which one you choose. The result is permanent.

Thank you! Have you ever used it? Do you like it? Someone told me that the effect is like smocking...

Is it texture magic? I've seen ads for this in the stitchnet newletter. (link from google, not from stitchnet) :) xXx

I just read about it in a newsletter but I have never used it. Of course some of the fusible interfacings I've used do that LOL.

A friend of mine used it and made a pillow. It was lovely and so very different. She said it was easy.

Do you know what type of fabric she used?
