🧵 The thermobonding fabric
The LacariaRicami 50x100cm thermobonding fabric is a semi-rigid structural stabilizer designed specifically to shape and support DIY bags, pouches, and sewn accessories. Weighing 120g/m², it offers the right amount of stiffness without weighing down the project, maintaining lightness and ease of handling during production. It is the ideal solution for those looking for professional reinforcement that does not give way after the first few uses.
The 50x100 cm size allows you to precisely cut all the panels needed for bags of various sizes, optimizing every centimeter of material. The distinctive feature is the double-sided iron-on property: both sides can be activated with an iron, allowing you to simultaneously attach the inner lining and outer fabric without visible seams or liquid glues.
🧬 Technical composition: why it works
The semi-rigid non-woven fabric is made with oriented synthetic fibers that offer structural resistance without making the project overly stiff. The medium stiffness is the perfect compromise between stability and flexibility: the bag walls remain upright even under load, but the fabric adapts to the curves and folds required during sewing. This makes it superior to traditional rigid reinforcements that break or deform with use.
The iron-on layer applied to both sides is a heat-fusible resin that activates between 150-180°C. This double-sided adhesion eliminates the need for contact adhesives or fixing sprays, reducing production time and ensuring uniform adhesion across the entire surface. The result is a panel perfectly bonded to the lining and outer fabric, which does not detach even after repeated washings.
📦 Size and performance of the sheet
The 50x100 cm sheet is sized to cover the standard panels of a medium bag (front, back, bottom, and sides) with a single purchase. For a classic 30x25x10 cm crossbody bag, you need about 0.4 m² of fabric, so a single sheet is sufficient. For larger bags or multiple projects, it is advisable to purchase 2-3 sheets to avoid visible seams.
The weight of 120g/m² ensures that the panel does not fold under the weight of the items inside, but remains light enough not to weigh down the finished bag. Important note: always purchase the required quantity in a single order, as different batches may show slight variations in thickness or shade of white.
🔥 Application with an iron
Applying the thermobonding fabric requires an iron set between 150-180°C without steam. Steam can compromise the activation of the adhesive resin. Position the cut panel between the lining and outer fabric, then press with the iron for 15-20 seconds over each area, applying even pressure. The glue activates immediately and cools in a few minutes, permanently bonding the three layers.
Essential practical tip: after hot application, always sew a stitch through the panel's edges, especially along the top edges and side seams. This mechanical reinforcement ensures that the panel does not detach even in cases of repeated stress or harsh washings. The fabric is easily sewn by machine with a 90/14 universal needle.
✨ Why choose LacariaRicami thermobonding fabric
Compared to standard single-sided iron-on interfacings, the double-sided thermobonding fabric eliminates a production step: there is no need to first apply the reinforcement to the lining and then sew the whole thing to the outer fabric. With a single ironing, you get a perfectly bonded sandwich, saving time and achieving a cleaner result. Bags made with this stabilizer maintain their shape even after months of heavy use.
The medium stiffness is calibrated for handmade projects: structured enough for bags that need to stand upright on their own, but not so stiff that it makes sewing difficult or creates unnatural corners. If you have ever tried reinforcements that were too soft and sagged, or too hard and broke at the corners, this fabric solves both problems with a balance designed for craftsmanship.
🎨 What you can make
The thermobonding fabric is the ideal base for structured DIY bags, rigid pouches, evening clutches, crossbody bags that hold their shape, shoppers with reinforced bottoms, and handmade accessories that need to withstand daily use. It is particularly suitable for stiffening crochet or knitted bags made with ribbon yarn, where the knitted construction requires internal support to prevent the fabric from deforming.
👩🎨 Who it is suitable for
This structural stabilizer is suitable for both beginners who are approaching bag making for the first time and experienced craftspeople looking for reliable reinforcement for mass production. Application with an iron is immediate and does not require professional equipment: all you need is a household iron and a flat surface. Even those who have never used a thermobonding fabric can achieve professional results on their first try.
It is particularly appreciated by those who make handmade bags for sale on Etsy or at craft markets, because it guarantees a construction quality that holds up against industrial products. Even hobbyists who create personalized gifts find this fabric the solution for bags that maintain their shape over time, without sagging after a few uses.

📌 Important note
Sheet dimensions may vary by ±1–2 cm from the nominal 50x100 cm size. Thickness and shade of white may vary slightly between production batches. For projects requiring multiple sheets, we recommend purchasing the entire required quantity at once to ensure uniformity. After applying with an iron, always add a perimeter stitch for maximum durability.
