Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I use the lightweight Sulky water soluble for my machine embroidery. I have drawn on it successfully. I am not sure about putting it through a printer, the lightweight is pretty flimsy. The heavier weight might work in a printer, but I think it might be more difficult to stitch through in handwork. Watch for the rolls of it at Joanns, and with a coupon you would get a good deal.
I just looked & it is $9.65/roll on Amazon.com and $19.95 @ JoAnn'sOriginally Posted by grann of 6
I only get it when I have a half off coupon. How is the shipping on Amazon? You have to include that too.
If you have Prime at Amazon, shipping is free.
Better to do something imperfectly, than nothing perfectly.
Done is better than perfect.
If you spend a total of $35.00, for most items you can get "free" shipping. I just put things in my "cart" on Amazon.com and then when I have $35.00 worth of items, make the purchase. My coffee is even cheaper on Amazon. Also, if you put items in your cart & just leave them there, sometimes the price goes down. You can move items to "save for later" and play with the $ amounts, so that you never have to pay for shipping. I "do not" pay for Prime. I always check Amazon when I buy something, as they are usually cheaper or the same as Walmart.
It's not worth $90 a year for me to get free shipping. I don't do much shopping through Amazon. If you do, it is a good value.
Thanks for the tip, I will have to try this in the future, when I can get back to quilting again. I's been 6 weeks since my shoulder replacement surgery, so I hope the Dr. gives me the go ahead this week when I see him again. Fingers crossed.
They have it at Wal Mart on line for under $10.00, cheaper than Amazon and it will come right to your local store.
I believe that it was the same price at Walmart as Amazon when I Googled it the other day. I don't have a Walmart close to me, so the "free" shipping from Amazon.com is a better deal for me as it comes to my door. I never pay for shipping on Amazon. You just have to spend $35.00 and you get free shipping.
I use it all the time for machine embroidery so "yes" you could machine quilt with it also. I love the fact that it disappears with a little water so you have no picking little pieces of other stabilizers. Great stuff! It is a little pricey though but just stock up when it is on sale or with a coupon.
