I am using Stick 'n Stitch from Sulky to transfer an embroidery motif to fabric. This motif is from my Flower Fancy pattern set:
The Stick 'n Stitch sheet is dissolvable fiber with a peel off paper-backing. I put a sheet of Stick 'n Stitch into my ink-jet printer paper tray and printed the image. This prints beautifully. The stitching lines are really distinct and easy to see:
Then I cut around the image:
Next, I peeled the paper backing off the printed sheet and stuck the motif onto my fabric:
I chose a lovely color palette
and started stitching! When I was done with the stitching, I rinsed all of the dissolvable fiber off of my project. I used cold water and it took a few minutes of rinsing. There was no residue left. The only downside I noticed was that a few of my Back Stitches {you can see at the top of the green curling stem} were not tight against the fabric. I must not have pulled them through tightly enough and only noticed after the dissolvable fiber was gone. I will remember that the next time I stitch with this product.
I really like this method of transferring a motif to fabric and I am looking forward to using it again!
