Floriani Stitch N Wash Fusible 20" x 10 yds

Try the new fusible version of Stitch N Wash® when doing embroidery on loosely woven versions of the fabrics mentioned above that tend to shift during the hooping and embroidery process. By fusing the Stitch N Wash® on to the back of the fabric, it will aid in keeping the fabric taut. This version also eliminates the need for basting or messy spray adhesives.

There are many quilters, designers and fiber artists who use our Stitch N Wash Fusible to create breath taking applique using the “Needle Turn” technique. Our NEW Stitch N Wash Fusible sheets are cut precisely to 8.5″ x 11″ for your printer so you can now eliminate tracing the applique pattern and print directly onto the stabilizer!

• Easy to remove from around delicate embroidery or machine stitching.
• Won’t shadow through light colored fabrics.
• Eliminates countless hours of “picking” out stabilizer remnants.
• Super stable and will support about 8,000 stitches if the design is well-digitized.

To use Stitch N Wash® Fusible:

1. Fuse one layer of the stabilizer on to the back of the garment. 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°F (120°C) Silk Setting) on your iron. Do NOT touch the surface of your iron to the Stitch N Wash® Fusible, press from the fabric side or use a press cloth (muslin or cotton).
2. Hoop the garment and stabilizer. Try to achieve “tight as a drum” tension.
3. Embroider the design. *Tip – If the design is denser than 8,000 stitches or if it is a poorly digitized design (too many stitches for design size), float an additional layer of Floriani Stitch N Wash® Fusible between the hoop and the bed of the machine for each additional 8,000 stitches for added support!
4. Remove the hoop from the machine and from the garment.
5. Wet around the edge of the design using a sponge, foam paint brush or envelope sealer. Wait about 10 seconds to allow the water to activate the water soluble portion of the stabilizer.
6. Tear away as much of the Stitch N Wash® Fusible as possible.
7. Stabilizer remnants will wash out in the laundry with a mild detergent and agitation.
