Vlieseline Vilene – Solufix Self Adhesive soluble Embroidery Backing, per 1/2 metre

Sold in 1/4 metre increments. Your chosen meterage provided in a consecutive piece, rolled, to fit into your parcel or lightly folded if its a smaller piece to fit into a padded envelope.

As a word of caution, gained from our experience in our hand embroidery classes – the DMC threads will be colour fast, fabrics, calico etc will be colour fast but if using FELT with this self adhesive embroidery backer and then emersing into water to dissolve it, it can happen that the felt will colour run and then your white DMC threads might turn pink….that was not a nice surprise in our class recently, especially for Scandi red and white Christmas embroideries…since then we are using fabric instead of felt which works much better. If you know your fabric was inexpensive and might colour run, you may consider prewashing it.
