Fusible webbing is a basically a glue that comes in sheets. You can buy it at Hobby Lobby and JoAnn’s as well as most fabric stores. It heats up and melts when ironed fusing the fabrics together. Here is a link to a great tutorial by Ashley of Lilblueboo…

Once fused, I stitch around the edges. My preferred fusible webbing is called Steam A Seam 2. Hope this helps:)
