This is a brilliant idea by Jenerates!
A hot hemmer is so useful, it's made from silicone and it's firm enough to work with even bouncy wool and it's heat resistant to 230°C. Plus it doesn't distort with steam. It can be used under the edge of fabric when ironing on fusible interfacing; the glue won't stick to the silicone.
One side has a gentle curve, the other is straight. Both are marked with small holes at 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 cm to let you mark your fabric for super-accurate placement. Plus you can use the holes to pin through the hemmer without damaging it, and the holes let the steam through to your fabric.
There are two corner options as well, to help with pressing curves.
