Look in the 99 cent designs.
alot like lace roses,a fsl wreath, fsl poiensetttia,a strawberry applique and a mini desert scene. Alot for free!

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

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

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

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

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

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.
