Frequently Asked Questions

What are stick and stitch embroidery patterns? +

Stick and stitch embroidery patterns are designs printed onto water-soluble paper. The backing peels away so the pattern sticks directly onto your fabric, giving you clear lines to stitch over. Once the embroidery is finished, the stabiliser dissolves in water, leaving only your stitching behind.

How do stick and stitch patterns work? +

Cut out the design you want to use, peel off the backing and press it onto your fabric. Stitch through the stabiliser following the printed lines. When the embroidery is complete, rinse the fabric in warm water and the stabiliser washes away.

Do stick and stitch patterns wash away completely? +

Yes. The designs are printed on water-soluble stabiliser that dissolves in warm water once you have finished stitching. After rinsing, the stabiliser disappears completely, leaving just your embroidery on the fabric.

Can you wash stick and stitch embroidery? +

Yes. Once the stabiliser has dissolved, the finished embroidery can be washed normally according to the care instructions for the fabric and thread you have used.

Are stick and stitch patterns reusable? +

Stick and stitch patterns are designed for single use. Because the stabiliser dissolves in water after stitching, the design cannot be reused. Each sheet includes multiple designs so you can complete several projects.

What fabrics can I use stick and stitch patterns on? +

Stick and stitch embroidery patterns work well on most fabrics including cotton, denim, linen and canvas. Because the design sits on top of the fabric, they are especially useful on darker fabrics or textured materials where iron-on embroidery transfers can be harder to see.

What can I make with stick and stitch embroidery patterns? +

You can use these patterns for hoop art, decorating clothing, bags and home textiles such as cushions and table linens. They are perfect for adding small embroidered details to jackets, pockets, tote bags and other everyday fabrics.
