I've been looking for this product for months but didn't know what it was called! Thanks so much for making your tutorial easy to follow and to the point. 🥰

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

Thank you for watching!

[@jennyanswer42]

Thank you so much. I got some for Christmas and tried to use the whole paper...it did not go well.

[@mmedeuxchevaux]

might you know how to transfer an image onto the Water-soluble stabilizer itself?

[@innertamement]

Very cool, always wondered how this worked!

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

innertamement yes! Pretty nifty!

[@karicampmas3256]

Is this just a normal pencil? Does it wash away too?

[@MellowMuttsASMR]

Hi do you have a video of washing or soaking it after you're done and how it looks after it's dry?

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

Hey there! In a couple other videos I show the Washing phase (pocket full of poses and summer bloom). You’ll need to wash it really thoroughly as the sticky stabilizer kind of becomes glue like when it dissolves and can dry kind of hard if you don’t wash really thoroughly and maybe more than once! As for the look, it’s pretty well the same but maybe not a soft and satiny unfortunately… not a perfect system but definitely good option for transferring a pattern!

So cool! If I may ask what is the best material to embroid on?

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

Sorry just seeing this now! I’m not sure what is “best”. Myself I like to work with a slightly rougher canvas based cotton!

[@ahnyrvante9525]

hi can you suggest another brand pf stabilizer? that brand is so expensive and very hard to find in our country. Thank you
