Book Information

The total control the embroider has over the choice of colour, texture, and imagery, as well as the non-fraying effect, off endless possibilities for creating much distinctive work. Fabulous effects and finishes can be obtained by using cold, hot, and boiling water soluble fabrics. These are the original cold water soluble film, boiling water soluble (spun alginate) and the new products Solbron and Aquafilm.
