Hot Fix Angelina Fibres

'Hot Fix' means that the fibres all fuse together with heat! Angelina is a soft lustrous fibre that will bond to itself at relatively low temperatures to produce a non woven type of fabric. Bonding occurs when 'Hot-Fix' Angelina fibres soften and fuse together.

Angelina is an exciting new development that revolutionises the use of sparkle in fabric. Angelina fibre has a super-soft handle, much like cashmere, but has been produced in such a way that even just a little added to a fibre mix will result in sparkling effects. Angelina Fibres can be spun, woven, layered, trapped, bonded etc. It’s applications in textile art, embroidery, papermaking, papiere mache, modelling card and candle making are endless.

Trying to photograph and scan such a highly reflective fibre as Angelina has proved a nightmare! The image we have captured does not convey the brilliance of the fibres and there is just no way that the true colours can be depicted on the internet. This is because every computer monitor can be set to different levels of colour, brightness and contrast, and all printing machines are different so it is possible that everyone will see a slightly different colour. The images therefore are only a guide and to see the true Angelina in all her glory you must wait for the postman to drop the parcel through the letterbox!

The book on Angelina is a must. Called ‘Between The Sheets With Angelina’ by Alysn Midgelow-Marsden. Click on the title to the right to see it! Between The Sheets with Angelina
