C&T - Wash-Away Stitch Stabilizer

Wash-Away Stitch Stabilizer

Position embroidery designs exactly where you want them, then wash away

Print your embroidery design directly onto these sheets, stick them precisely where you want them, then stitch straight through. The adhesive backing grips fabric securely enough for accurate placement but repositions easily if you need to adjust before committing to that first stitch. This solves the perpetual problem of transferring complex patterns onto fabric, no more tracing, no pencil marks to remove later, no hoping your placement matches your vision.

Water-soluble stabilizer supports dense stitching patterns while protecting delicate fabrics from distortion. The material dissolves completely in water after stitching, leaving no residue behind. This dual function, temporary stabilizer and precise pattern guide, proves especially valuable for embroidery on challenging items like collars, cuffs, or pieces too small or awkwardly shaped to hoop traditionally.

Standard 8.5" × 11" sheets run through inkjet or laser printers and work with copiers too. You can also trace designs by hand if you prefer. Machine quilters use these for placement guides on complex patterns; appliqué artists rely on them for exact positioning; crazy quilters appreciate the stabilization during dense decorative stitching. Complete instructions included for optimal results across different techniques and fabric types.
