Floriani Wet N Gone Fusible stabilizer 12" x 10yds
This unique product is a fibrous water soluble stabilizer but also has a light fusible coating which aids in hooping and fabric control. The water soluble base does a beautiful job of supporting dense embroidery designs on fabrics where complete stabilizer removal is desired. Its clean rinse capability makes it the best choice when using it with delicate fibers such as yarn scarves or English netting. Also use for sheer fabrics such as organdy, organza, lame, sheer silks and more to establish a solid type fabric that is easier to hoop and embroider. Once the embroidery is complete, all the stabilizer rinses away and will not shadow through.
To use regular Wet N Gone for free standing lace and/or embroideries:
- Hoop one layer of the stabilizer within the embroider frame. Try to achieve "tight as a drum" tension without stretching or distorting the stabilizer.
- Embroider the design.
- Remove the product from the hoop and trim away as much of the stabilizer as possible.
- Rinse away the Wet N Gone® using lukewarm water. *Tip - If your desire is to have the lace stiff, simply get the embroidery wet. Don't rinse! Once it is wet, the stabilizer will be absorbed into the stitching and will dry stiff.
To use Wet N Gone Fusible:
- Fuse one layer of the stabilizer on to the back of the fabric. Be sure to use a piece at least one inch larger than the outer parameter of the hoop to insure proper stabilization. *Important - Use a low temp (260°, silk) setting on your iron. Do not touch the surface of your iron to the Wet N Gone Fusible®, use a press cloth (muslin or cotton). Press quickly! It is not necessary to hold the iron to the fabric for more than three seconds.
- Repeat steps 2-4 from above.
