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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
