stamped embroidery
 

Does anyone know how to get out the blue marks on prestamped embroidery fabric?

I have never had any success so I will be anxious to see if someone has the solution. It does get lighter with repeated washings.

Never came out for me, either.

I always thought you just had to be sure to cover them up with your embroidery stitches.

I just washed them and have never had a problem. But if you iron them, I understand it causes a problem.

I just made sure I covered them with the embroidery stitches. I always stitched on the scant outside of the line or some do an outline stitch. Never tried washing the ink out!

How new is the stamped piece? I have a quilt on my bed that my beloved Aunt embroidered the blocks and set them together with sashing and my daughter and I hand quilted the blocks on the blue dotted lines that were provided. My Aunt passed away in 1999 and I was able to get the quilt from her daughter and it has been on my bed ever since and washed umpteen times and line-dried outside and the blue lines are still there.

Now, the newer embroidery pieces are stamped with turquoise ink - so don't know if they are the same. HTH

As far as I know they don't come out. They won't show after you stitch.

I thought washing would remove the blue lines.
