Sulky - 486-12 9-Yard Solvy Water Soluble stabilizer, 12 x 9.5 yd, White

Bought for wife, she says: I bought this for machine embroidery thinking it was iron on, OOPS. But I discovered that dissolving a yard of the stabilizer in hot water, put it in a small spray bottle and sprayed the fabric AFTER I put it in the hoop. Then let that dry in front of a small space heater. That made the fabric tight as a drum and very stiff. I always had issues getting the fabric tight enough on the hoop, but this way it shrinks a little as it dries and tightens it that way. Actually I was able to do more embroidery with the spray than with it dry and tacked onto fabric! So it turned out to be of good value. And my machine did better embroidery with the fabric being stiff from the spray RATHER than stitching or ironing the Solvy to the fabric. So I was pleasantly surprised. I actually like this better than ironing on stabilizer, or stitching stabilizer to fabric. And after your done just throw it in the wash to remove stabilizer. Instead of having to pick at every stray piece of tear away stabilizer that is left on the fabric after embroidery is done. Which I usually had to use tweezers to get all of it lol, but this way I dont have to worry about the embroidery looking sloppy from the tear away stabilizer scraps left behind.

Just what I needed

Perfect for machine embroidery and this stabilizer is one of the first things youll need to use on variety of fabrics. It comes off fairly easy after embroidering. Different feel from the Pellon brand, its like working with plastic wrap, thin & clingy but does the job. For the price its worth it. For 9 yards its a good product and easy to store away compared to the ones you buy at the fabric store by the yard.

It arrived quickly - Im not very patient and was glad to see it arrive so quickly. The product can be used in several different ways. Its a benefit to my quilting designs.

I am very new to machine embroidery and I purchased this item as sort of a must-have starter list. It is perfect for use as floater stabilizer for the top of towels and fleeced materials. It is less perfect as a base for free-standing lace projects - two layers are a must! I will buy it again.

Stabilizer was packaged well. Ive used it numerous time to embroider images on bibs. The only thing I was surprised was the gooey feel as your rinsing it. However was told to expect that from water soluble stabilizer. Other than that product is as describe and would definitely purchase from this provider again.

We needed water-soluble material to hold my Mama Ritas ashes before throwing them into the ocean. We made seven bags for seven scattering tubes. This allowed us to pitch an entire tube (also water soluble/biodegradable) or just throw the bag. This worked GREAT!

I had never worked with a fabric stabilizer before, but I wanted to floss embroider names onto fleece blankets, and someone suggested getting a water soluble stabilizer. So what I did was type the name in the size and font that I wanted on Word, printed it out, laid the clear stabilizer over it, and traced the names with a plain old black marker. So easy to write on it, and I gave it a few seconds to dry and didnt have any smudges. After that, I laid the stabilizer on top of the fleece (the right-side out) so the stitches wouldnt sink and get lost in the fleece. I embroidered the names and little characters, washed it, and it turned out great! I am very pleased with this product, and there is so much of it. Great buy!

Necessary for many embroidery designs. great packaging and price in a good range of other similar items. It also arrived in a very timely matter. The instructions on the back of the label is invaluable.

I use this to embroider on Minky fabric when creating plush animals and toys. This works amazing and have found it hard to find in this size roll outside of amazon. I do not need to use any adhesive when embroidering on Minky just pull it tight in the hoop and away I go. Works wonders I have not experienced any downsides to this product
