This is my first attempt with Mylar, I finaly could buy the Mylar and I used the flower Iris from the site of Aquasanta.It was fun to do.

32767I have been reluctant to try this, but after seeing this iris (which is my favorite flower and the flower for my great state of TN) I must try it. I bought the mylar fish and butterflies on Designs by Sick when they were $1 each....so I must try them now. So pretty and so pretty even after washing. Congratulations on a job well done.....

119791I did wash my t shirt with the Mylar and it didn't change a bit. I did wash on 30 degrees and did the ironing at the back of the design with a cloth between the shirt and the iron
58029Beautiful, indeed! Pity I can't find Mylar here in Portugal!***

360642Excellent job! It's a lot of fun to spruce up designs with. I've only tried it on fsl so far. If I knew it would look this good I'd have tried it on regular designs! It really looks good!

Thank you for comment, You cannot use this for regular designs but you do need Mylar designs. Thay are more open so the Mylar shines through the stitches. It is a good idea to use it with FSL.

29871Hah! At least you took the Mylar!
So you only have to test if it is washable or not.
The flower looks really nice. In Germany I can't find mylar or any embroidery-folie yet. If I would find I would make butterflies for another pair of slippers which look as shiny as your flower. The difference between the colours on the black fabric ist excellent.
Well done.

Take it from me! It is very washable, and you can even use the iron on it if you want to. I have put tops in the washing machine that have mylar designs on, and they come out as good as new. Wonderful stuff this Mylar!
2188Carla this is very pretty...It's also my mothers fav. flower...Her garden is loaded with them.
