I was looking everywhere for a review of this stuff. Thank you so much!!!!
Oh my God, I love this so much! Really helps a lot! Thank you so much for sharing!!! 😘😘😘
This is a genius product! Thanks for sharing!
It does - but you have to be careful rinsing it off. If you're using wool felt, do NOT use hot (or even warm) water. It will shrink the felt and make the surface texture pebbly. You can use cold water, roll it up in a towel to soak up the extra water (don't twist!), then lay flat to dry. You can iron it flat from the back if it needs it - use the right temperature for the content.
I never use acrylic felt, but it should be less fussy. Just rinse and lay flat to dry. Don't iron! It will melt!
This is great! Does it work on felt as well? Thanks so much!!!
That is flippin FABULOUS! Thanks for sharing!!! =)
This looks fabulous--I really like that it isn't iron-on!
Thanks a lot for this wonderful video!
Sure! I save all my scraps and trace smaller images onto them. The surface is a bit bumpy though.
I just found this video and am thrilled. I have been trying to figure out a way other than tracing. My question is, will the embroidery hoop rub off the film or do I need to get a larger one that won't touch the pattern and film?
If you can't find it locally - I do ship international. I sent a package to Brasil last week. :-)
I’m planning on embroidering my backpack. It’s an osprey brand (really thick, water resistant fabric) and I want to use a stabilizer for the inside since the backpack is unlined where I’m planning on embroidering. What would you recommend for a stabilizer for the inside of my backpack? Trying to keep my stitches nice and prevent objects from snagging when I pull them out of my backpack. Thanks!
Thanks so much, it helped me a lot.
No problems. Of course, it will only stick to the top layer of fabric, but as you sew through it they'll anchor together.
Hello Wendi, can I print color images on this paper also or is it just for black & white?
I have hot iron transfers from colonial patterns. Can I iron them on to the stabilizer instead of on my fabric?
Thanks, Wendy.
It seems to me that one would still need to back one's project with muslin in order to keep threads from showing through on light fabrics. Will that create any sort of problem that you can foresee?
Hi Wendi, I am working on a quilt for a friend and Im going to be using hand embroidered quilt blocks for the quilt. I had a few questions. I am planning on using this new product The Magical Embroidery Stuff to transfer and stabilize, but my question is do I still need to put something behind my embroidered block to hide stitches since I am using white fabric? Also, should I pre-wash my fabric before embroidering? If so, what steps do you take to do that?
No - it's only for inkjet printers or copy machines. I have a laser printer, so I print out a copy of my pattern on regular paper, then run it to the local library and copy it onto The Magical Embroidery Stuff.
Thank you! 😊
hi can i use a Laser printer on this stuff thanks
Do you photocopy on the laser print? Also can you stick this on tulle? Thanks!
I shared this, thanks
You're welcome. :-)
thank you so much i going to buy one
I'm not sure. I feel like the heat of the iron would interfere with the washability of the stabilizer. I'd transfer the image to your fabric like usual and stick the stabilizer on just as stabilizer. Or - if you're trying to avoid the permanent lines you get with the pattern transfer, maybe photocopy your design onto the stabilizer instead of heat transferring it. It's safe to run through a copy machine. Good luck!
Is this sunshine pattern available?
Idk if you will reply since this video has a few years on it but.. does this work on stretchy fabric? Will the print stay nicely once it washes away? Please respond, thank you! 🙏🏼
I know this is an old video, but oh my gosh! I have to see if I can find this stuff! Thanks for sharing!
It's still one of my favorite supplies! I sell it at shop.shinyhappyworld.com/collections/embroidery-supplies/products/sulky-sticky-fabri-solvy-aka-the-magical-embroidery-stuff.
@@WendiGratz Great, thanks!
Hi Wendi I would really love a copy of that design you are showing with the stabilizer. My daughter is having a boy in December and the theme of his room is exactly like this design. Please tell me where I can get it. Thank you so much

This is great, but I live in Brasil, the hard part of embroidering is to transfer, hope I can get this here .
If the shirt I want to use this on is 93% Rayon and 7% Spandex/Elastane, will my stitching still look alright when it gets stretched across the chest upon being worn? It's a fitted shirt.
It depends on how fitted the shirt is and how dense the stitching is. The stitching won't stretch, so if it's very densely stitched AND the shirt needs to stretch a lot to fit, then that might be a problem. But normal stitching on a normal-fitting shirt should do just fine.
This is what I was wondering about as well. I'd love to use it on a tshirt to embroider which is very stretchy fabric. The design I want to use would be dense and the clothing would fit me loosely so I'm thinking it could work. Would you agree? Thanks for all this info. Very useful!!
Do you send this out of USA? Israel?
So if you draw the design by hand you just make the copy right?
How will you know if the thread colors don't bleed? And why do you have to use inkjet over laser?
I use DMC thread and I've never had any color bleed.
Wendi Gratz ok thanks. I buy that too. can you use a laser printer. I don't have a copy machine.
They've changed something and now you can use either laser or inkjet. I use laser and it works great.
Great, thank you!! :)
jlt1984 and
You are out of stock on this stuff, but one review said it's not for use in a hoop? I always use a hoop, can you explain if I can use this stuff when you get it back in stock, please
I use it in a hoop all the time with no problems. I'm expecting to have it back in stock by the end of the week.
I read a few places this could be used in a laser printer as well - have you tried it and does it work?
Yes - they have changed the formula and now it works in laser printers as well.
Do you have any issues with thread bleeding? And do you use cold water?
I've never had thread bleed (I use DMC or Sulky Petites) and I usually use cold or cool water.
all of my printers are lasers including my multifunction. can you not print directly onto this using a laser printer?
You can now - they've changed their formula a bit. :-)
thank you. I'll pick some up today.
This stuff sounds great, but the link you provided takes me to an error page
Thanks for letting me know. I fixed the link. :-)
I can print on it ?? Really ?
Really. :-)
