Specialty Products

Aqua Wonder-This amazing product feels like a non woven interfacing but will dissolve quickly under lukewarm water.  Strong and fibrous, this is a great product for sweater toppings, lacemaking  and yarn thread scarves.  Serves as a stable base yet disappears quickly under water and dries soft against the skin.  Superior to other water soluble products in that it is stronger, requires only one layer in most instances, dissolves more quickly and dries softer.

Lace Master- Clear, heavy material which will dissolve under water.  Ideal for lace baskets and free standing designs which require some stiffner and shaping, as it will take two rinsings to rid the embroidery of all the stabilization, therefore embroideries will dry stiff and conform to shaping and molding.  Superior to similar products in that it is more moldable, easier to control and stronger.

Peel 'n Stay- This is a fibrous sticky back tearaway to be used whenver a garment is difficult to hoop, too small to hoop, or if the fabric would become marked by the hoop pressure.  Simply peel the paper away, stick the item to the paper, embroider and tear away.  This product is superior to other similar products in that it remains soft underneath the embroidery due to the fibrous qualities.  After washing it becomes even softer!

Wonder Applique'-This is a two sided fusible agent which has a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side. This adhesive can be repositioned numerous times, and then fused permanantely with an iron.  Wonderful for applique, it is superior to other products  because it fuses permanently yet softer for a more natural feel, will not affect the stitch quality of the sewing machine and will not gum up the needle.

Spritz 'n Stick-  This stabilizer activates and cleans up only with water.  Used in hoopless embroidery when the object to be embroidered is too irregularly shaped to be hooped in traditional fashion.   Simply hoop the stabilizer and spray or dampen in a controlled fashion.  Use a damp sponge or rag to spread the moisture and place your garment down. The adhesive will keep the garment securely in place until you stitch into it.

There will be no residue on the needles.  Any residue on the hoops will wipe off with water.

Fusible No-Show Mesh

 Soft, sheer translucent  embossed nylon for invisible stabilizing. Wonderful for knits and light colored fabrics, it is invisible to the eye when viewed from the front.  Very comfortable to the wearer, and can be combined with a tearaway for extra support while embroidering.
