I just found out that I had a TIP published at Emblibrary today - I think it is great - what do you think?

Sorry Shirlene - I missed this. Well done. Hugs Sarah.

Thank you stitchship and you are right - they have many uses. *4U

CONGRATULATIONS Shirlene. Great tip. There are a lot of uses for dryer sheet. If you have a cat with alergies, rub a used one on her fur to sooth the itch. This tip was given to my brother from his vet.
Enjoy your new designs.

Thank you my dear ****4U2

Great! I also use the scented fabric softener sheets to make the bugs leave us alone at a picnic.

Super tip - I like that - it smells good - while getting rid of the bugs. *4U

Hello, Shirlene, I am glad you win voucher!
But, it's difficult to understand (for poor foreigner I am) what to do exactly. I understand it's for thread not to tangle, I understand what is fabric softener sheet, but I suppose it is for hand sewing only ? If it's also for machine sewing, I don't understand what to do exactly. Thank you to let me know, pleasssse. Hug and love

Francoise, you are right - it is for hand sewing - but I think that you could run your thread through a dryer sheet - if you wanted to for your machine embroidery - but the sheet might mess up your thread more than it would be worth. Just stick your needle and thread through a fabric softener sheet - so that the thread doesn't tangle while hand sewing. *4U

by shirlener88 17 Nov 2010

It allows the tread to slip through the fabric easier - so that the thread doesn't tangle up and knot while sewing.

Congratulations

Luly, thanks so much *4U

Congratulations! Some of us knew of your tip before you did due to the time zone. lol I use those dryer sheets for a lot of stuff. Used ones for dusting TV and computer screens etc. and new ones for static control in the winter for garments and hair when conditioner fails.

Anita, I guess you did - isn't that funny? I hope that you submit some of those idea's - they might accept them - who knows. *4U

by capoodle 17 Nov 2010

They probably only accept ones that are embroidery/sewing oriented.

Congrats Shirlene!!! Great tip. Thanx for sharing.

Caroline, thanks - used it already! Hehehe! *4U

What does it do? Or should I say, what is the purpose?

1 comment

by shirlener88 17 Nov 2010

The purpose is to detangle the thread or to leave it to where the thread will slip through the fabric easier and will not tangle up so easily. *4U

Pretty good, you are one smart cookie! Congrats!

It's a great idea, Shirlene. I stocked up. It's all on the other side of the world!!! I haven't an embroidery machine here anyway at present~

by shirlener88 17 Nov 2010

Oh my - you could have submitted this - as it is actually the thread that you are coating with the fabric softener - to keep it untangled. Thanks! *4U

Shirlene, congrats again - you are a prolific tip writer! Enjoy yor new coupon!

by bevintex 17 Nov 2010

by shirlener88 17 Nov 2010

by bevintex 17 Nov 2010
