There is another stabiliser you can use instead of WSS when embroidering on towels or dark fabrics.......

It is called Dry Cover Up (now renamed to Fabric Cover UP)
It was recommended to me by a very knowledgeable Digitiser & Embroidery Guru.

It doesn't wash out, but remains under the stitches for the life of the garment, which means no need to wash the towels before giving as gifts and no more stiff towels.

It comes in a range of colours and allows you to embroider white over black without the white looking grey.

I have not tried it yet, but I ordered a 20 foot roll of neutral to try and I'm not embroidering any more towels until it arrives.

You can find out more at the first link below.

And you can purchase (best price I could find) from the second link.

I have repeated this post in main community so that everyone gets to see it.
Hugs n roses, Meganne

Thanks Meganne, It sounds wonderful from what I read. Please let us know how yours turn out. Oh, how I wish I was not such a creature of habit. The older I get the less I like changes in my normal routine. I liked me much better when I was a Sooooo much different than I am now. After my 1st surgery that left me disable to do most things that were normal to my lifestyle, I got to be a really boring and sedate person. I let my life get boring in many many ways. Not being able to work a regular full-time job took the wind out of my sails. I never try anything new or different anymore. I do not even like myself anymore because of the way my life had to change.
