I haven't tried it, would like to know also, what others think. love JoAnn

I have a few designs. The hard part is finding the mylar. Party City has it in the gift wrap department. Also found some at a Dollar Tree store. it tears away very easily and really leaves a wow effect to a design. Kay

So far I have used it only in Ornaments or window displays no need for washing. I bought it at the dollar store in all kinds of colors which I will not hesitate to embroider on non washable items. From what I have read so far the one that does not bleed is the pearlized one.

Emb Library designs are usually very dense, almost "bullet proof" so a mylar design would be alot lighter and less stich intensive. I have purchase the gift wrap at dollar store, and it works fine. Some of the packs say "washable" and I would trust that, others I would wet my fingers and rub, because if it comes off and look clear, it won't survive washing, but would work for craft items (xmas decor, etc). I have had good luck putting it behind a rainbow for little dgd's and they loved the shimmer.

I use the mylar from Michaels and I have washed and dryed it the washer and dryer. I would Through the dollar store mylar in with a few old towels and see how it holds up.
