They all are beautiful. I especially like the breast cancer pink ribbon.

You're NOT being difficult. The brand I use is called "Wash Away Tear Away" and is from the Marathon Thread Co. (www.marathonthread.com). I use one layer on the towels which seems to do the job. Their thread is also nice.

The wash away I've been using on the top is Solvy - Medium Weight. (I bought a whole big roll by mistake -- this stuff does NOT work well when making free standing lace!)

The towels are just beautiful! I really need to use my embrodiery machine, I did at first when I first got it and loved it, but then got busy and haven't looked at it since. I vowed I would start on Christmas projects early in January and work thru Nobember!
