Stabilizer hack's to save you money!

[@MakerandDreamer]

That's a great idea! Thanks I've thrown so much out.

Your welcome!

You can more easily glue baste the edges of stabilizer with Elmer's Glue & set it securely with a hot iron. Elmer's glue all holds up just as well as stitches and rinses out with water after the project is done. It also will NOT gum up your needles.

good to know. Needles were my worries.

Those machines always made those loud sounds while sewing vs just a regular sewing machine

[@sewing4madison]

100% agree

Thank you soooo much for this, I always have a hard time throwing scraps away, “ they have to be able to be used some how”

I just made my own wash away stabilizer, search on youtube diy bio plastic, its a gelatin and glycerin recipe and its easy, worked perfectly, rinsed out in less than 30 seconds, i also use paper towel as a stabilizer i separate it down to 1 or 2 ply then throw it in the wash afterwards, the cheaper the towel the easier it is to wash off ive noticed, i hope everyone can save some money using these tricks, stabilizing materials are too expensive and too much waste, hope this will help someone xx Nadine

[@sewing4madison]

What kind of projects do you use this method on?

[@NadineBurnes]

@@sewing4madison all of them i use paper towel underneath and for towels i use the bio plastic on top as well, :)

[@assayagrod]
