409-02 Paper Solvy Water Soluble Fabric Stabilizer, 8-1/2 by 11-Inch, 12 Per Package

Great product…I use these to print embroidery patterns on..

The product does its job, it's just not 100% what I was hoping for. I do hand embroidery on darker fabrics (that I can't trace on) so I need something to transfer the image on. After I wash it off with water, it is very hard to get everything off. Not bad enough that I won't use it again, but not a perfect product for what I need.

I use this Solvy mostly for garment sewing, specifically, for sewing garments of thin or lightweight knit fabric. I prefer to sew my knit leggings and shorts, especially athletic wear, with a lightning bolt stitch, then finish the seam on my serger because it makes an indestructible seam. Thin knits have an annoying habit of being sucked down the hole on my sewing machine. Just put a thin strip of solvy under the knit and that eliminates the problem entirely. It tears off easily and any bits that are left wash out later. It's also useful for making rolled hems on the serger. It is also a good washable stabilizer for machine embroidery, although I don't use it as much for that. But it is a lifesaver for sewing cool, lightweight knit garments on the sewing machine!

I like Paper Solvy for sashiko. It works well; however, this package had been opened and resealed and was not full. It was one sheet short. It’s a lot of work to return, including a two mile walk so I won’t be getting this brand again.

I was super excited to try this after reading a recommendation. The author had said they loved how they could print a pattern and then slap it onto the fabric like a sticker. How bummed was I when I realized I bought the non sticky backed one 😕. So apparently there’s Sulky Paper Solvi, and there’s ALSO Sulky Sticky Fabri Solvi. Totally not confusing (sarcasm). You need to spray the back of this one with a spray adhesive, which I have but it requires soap and water to remove and I really don’t want to do a bunch of embroidery and then scrub a dub it. So now I have to either but the stuff I originally thought I was getting or buy some water soluble spray adhesive for fabric. Dang it.

Good quality

I used a large needle and thicker fabric with these and the paper tore several times. Maybe with a smalled needle it would have worked better.

I used this to make paper soap, so I can’t review based on its “proper” use. But it holds up well to the initial handling, which means I can manipulate it while damp with the liquid soap (Dr. Bronners). It also dissolves well and cleanly. I don’t need to spend a lot of time to dissolve it when washing my hands and it doesn’t leave residue or a mess in the sink.

Voila déjà plusieurs fois que j'en commande afin de faire des broderies sur tissu ou feutrine.Vous imprimez, vous collez et vous brodez. Se dissout facilement à l'eau et aucune trace.

Great product

Ich hatte wirklich gehofft, dass es sich um ein bedrucktes Papier handelt, das dann als Aufkleber dient, aber leider ist es nicht so. Da es nicht selbstklebend ist, musste ich es mit Sicherheitsnadeln an dem Stoff befestigen, den ich nicht besticken wollte, wodurch es sich ständig bewegte. Insgesamt war das für mich leider ein Reinfall, auch wenn das Produkt selbst hochwertig wirkt.I was really hoping this was the paper solvy that you print on and it becomes a sticker but unfortunately that's now what this is. Because it isn't adhesive, I had to safety pin it to the textile I wasn't to embroider and so it moved around a lot. Overall for me this was a fail unfortunately even though the product itself seems good quality.

Per chi come me è al inizio del ricamo. Non lo consiglio perché se fai con l’ago più spesso su un punto la carta si spezza. Questo è un tipo di carta non come tessuto. Questa è ideale per la macchina dove i punti sono precisi

Actually works! Really lovely!
