Woven fusible interfacing

Hi there

I use fusible woven interfacing where required but am noticing with a few of the garments after multiple wearing, washing and ironing that the interfacing must have shrunk and the fabric is now slightly bigger and therefore there is a type of puckering (hope I'm explaining it so you understand). Wondering if I should use a sew-in woven interfacing would be better? Can you even buy sew-in woven interfacing?

Thoughts appreciated

Thanks

You can definitely buy sew-in woven interfacing, I have to admit to always using fusible though!! I know the type of puckering you mean, especially on collars. Does it flatten out when you iron the garment?
