Join us for this episode of WIP Wednesday where Vanessa is unboxing a new mini heat press! It’s basically a tiny iron and we want to see what it can do. Does it work for pressing fabric? Can I use it to fuse interfacing to cotton fabric? How hot does it get? Is it portable?
Vanessa will answer these questions and more!
