Product Description

H.B.I. Water Soluble Embrodiery Topping

Sew out with water soluble topping

Place Soluble Topping

Begin by laying the water-soluble topping on your embroidery design area. Make sure it covers the entire area of the design. This topping acts as a barrier between the stitches and the fabric, preventing the stitches from sinking into the fabric and ensuring a clean, crisp embroidery outcome.

Water soluble topping being removed by hand

Tear Away Excess Topping

Once the embroidery process is completed, gently tear away the excess water-soluble topping from around the design. Be careful not to disrupt the stitches. The topping is designed to easily tear away, leaving your design intact and prominent against the fabric.

Water soluble topping being dabbed away after being moistened

Moisten and Dab Remaining

For any remaining topping, dampen it lightly with water using a soft cloth, sponge or spray bottle. Allow it to sit for a few moments, then gently dab the area with an excess piece of water-soluble topping. This will lift away any small remnants, leaving your embroidered design clean and clear.

Design after removal of water soluble topping

Finished Design After Removal

Water-soluble topping is designed to dissolve easily in water. You can also choose to skip steps 2 and 3 and allow topping to be removed during a normal machine wash. The topping will dissolve and wash away, leaving your embroidered design intact and free of any residue. This makes it an easy and hassle-free solution for high-quality embroidery work.

This works just as well as the expensive ones from the sewing store. It’s easy to use. It washes off completely and it’s easy to remove.

When embroidering on terry cloth, this product prevents embroidery from sinking in to the loops. Water soluble. Works great!

Looking for a stabilizer that is easily removed and keeps your machine from getting caught in the plush of the towel when you embroider? This wash away stabilizer is perfect. Just rinse or spritz it with water and it is gone.

I wish a rubber band or painter's tape has been used to hold it closed instead of the tape that was used. Removing it ruined the first 6" of the roll.

Very disappointed with this product.I would liken it to cling film.Nearly impossibly to hoop because it’s so stretchy and thin, requiring double layer to use.Wouldn’t recommend.
