Marymoore, to make most of the fabric type ones, I use one layer of fabric type and one layer of clear wss. The fabric type on the top. It does work wonderful for me. Hugs&*

Perhaps you could start a for sale section on Cute with this stuff as the starter, slowly building up to adding the husband? (only joking)
Missed your postings as I expect you are busy enjoying your new machine.
The FLS bug has not got me yet so cannot comment on the stuff. Happy sewing

It will be a good WSS to have for doing towels,blankets and some clothing. Other than that I think the vilene is the best too. Have no idea what is wrong with your pc poor thing :(

It must be the light weight WSS. I use that on top of designs such as towels to hold the nap. I have the heavy weight solvy brand and it works fine. I used it for one I placed in the projects.

Actually Mary there is a clear thin (like Saran Wrap) and there is a THICK clear like V e r y heavy plastic. And you are absolutely correct, the thin is not for FSL.....I have 3 lbs of thread in a wad to prove it. I saved it for the last 4 years, just as a reminder.;)

Oh honey, you're using the topper (for towels, etc.)... no, no, no... you need either the thick plastic (ultra solvy) or the mesh kind... I don't use the plastic after I had a design fall apart... only the mesh kind.

I have some of that, I boughted myself, no one to blame, and it was so bad, could not do anything with, so I use it now for embroidery on towels, felt,etc.,
I still think that vylene is the best, there are others but I have not found them yet.The one that I always buy went from 5.00 to 5.50 a yard.You should be happy that your old men is interested in your craft and tries to help you!!!!!***

Oh Mary - what a sad thing - I understand that you are just trying to use the kind that your DH bought - but you might have to put it aside and wait for the kind that you need - the drooping isn't a good thing - as that means that the middle was stretched out and not the sides - so sorry this has happened and that you are still having PC trouble, too.

Mary the best wss I have every used is Fabric Solvy by Sulky. It looks like fabric and I am able to use the larger hoop and do serveral different fsl designs in same hooping...so if doing crosses instead of one I may get 3 to 5 depending on the size of the design. Don't know if this helps but hope so.

I also use the same technique as Yoriko, I bought some badge master over a year ago when i did not know better and I is indeed yucky but I you use a layer if it and one of the vilene or any of that kind it will make a difference.

Mary, the clear WSS(Solvy) is for towels, blankets,polar fleece or anything that has a pile, so it is not a waste. Use WSS vilene for FSL.

I have the Badge Master (thought it was Sulky), it is the thick kind, and I love it. I use it on all of my fsl, bowls, bells, xmas ornaments and have never had a problem with it. It gets very stiff( but I donot rinse all of it out). If I need it to be any stiffer, I just melt some of the waste pieces in some water, getting it kinda thick, and dip the product in it and it really gets stiff then. Honestly, I never have any problem out of it.
