I decided to use "twinkle" cloth. I'm afraid to wet it with the WSS. Afraid it will do what the Bible did. I'll show you that one too. Just waiting to see if the owner will fix the design stitchout.

29648I use this to make butterfly and dragonflys if it not as stiff as you want after you wet it make a slurry-paste of scrap of the wws brush on with little paint brush dry with a blow dryer or dry in air it take about a day and they will stay stiff

Yes, thank you. I actually keep a container of disolved wss just for that. I let it air dry since it is still warm here in SC. ;)

Thank you Deb. You are given two different one this is the second one that says notfsl. But I thought since I used fabric it might hold up. We'll see. You live and learn. I guess you can tell I'm still new at somethings. :)
33580Oh my - can't wait to find out what happens. This is very pretty.

211079it's really pretty, but I agree with jasanne don't think it was meant to be stitches as fsl.

I hoped by using the fabric it will hold up. The other was the actual fsl. The stitches are pretty tightly stitched, If it does okay, I might maybe back it with some felt to give it a better life. I'll keep everyone updated on this one.
20661It is a lovely cross, but I think it may be meant as a fill design for fabric not fsl, there is another similar cross in the set which is fsl. Let us know how it holds up when you wet it, the fabric may be enough to hold it OK.
Here we call that fabric sparkle organza.

Thank you Jasanne. It is sparkle organza or iridescent organza, but here in the south (usa) we just call it "twinkle" hehehe...You are right it is the "notfsl" one, but I thought with the fabric it would hold up. It isn't very large either. There are over 12,000 stitches in there, so I'm thinking it will hold up. I'll let you know when I wet it. :)
