Review on Mary Ellen Products Press Starch by Maria Williams

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Bleeding Tissue!

After people raved about this quilter product, I tried it out on a few blocks of my current quilt. I didn't like the scent. It doesn't smell like fresh laundry to me, but the smell is subjective. What I can't take is my tissues bleeding! Not on all blocks, but too much on just one specific block. Now I need to recreate this block to continue the quilt. So sad. Also, I now know that I prefer the thickness of spray starch from the grocery store. This makes the blocks so stiff they can practically stand on their own! I like it . no stretch. It made my fabrics a little stiffer, but definitely not stiff. I think that's what they mean when other quilters say it makes the fabric "look good". Not my preference.

Pros
  • Starch and Static Sprays
Cons
  • Something Else
