Angelina Fibres & Fusible Film
Angelina Fibres are iridescent, soft shimmering, ultra fine (0.008mm) fibres with a super soft handle that create a luminescent effect where light is reflected and refracted. When heat is applied to the fusible colours, you achieve a luminescent web of non woven fibres. Angelina Fibres can be incorporated into textile work, machine embroidery, spinning, stitching, papermaking, collage, card making and stamping. For additional effects, try trapping lightweight flat materials between 2 layers of the Angelina Fibres eg sequins, feathers, fine wire. Work with your imagination!
Fusible film is the same material as the Angelina fibres but in sheet form. These iridescent, soft shimmering, sheets with a super soft handle create a luminescent effect where light is reflected and refracted. Apply heat in the same way as with the Angelina fibres. If a piece of Fusible Film is crinkled, the various angles of the surface cause it to flash with bright colours, even more than regular Angelina. Fusible Film is incredibly easy to use - just place the film on its own (or mixed with Angelina fibres and other flat items such as sequins) in small amounts between 2 sheets of baking parchment and iron briefly to fuse. Then cut, shape, punch, stitch and layer to create fantastic pieces. 10cm x 2m sheets.
