I do not use Water Soluable thread, but I use vinyl thread, just sew around the sample (on a thin paper!), and rip the paper.
Then I stipling the extra area. I called it a false trapunto.I have o lot of "trapunto" sample. If you ask, I will send as is only to be!(I do not English!) I hope you understand what I wanted to write!

And YES...PROMINENTLY MARK your Water Soluable thread so that you don't mix it up. I keep mine in the original package unless its on my machine. And licking the end before threading your needle is really not a good idea...:lol:
