Dear sewnsewer2
Thank you for sharing the secret. I'm stopping off at my local quilt store on the way home to give that Ultra Solvy a try. I love this website, everyone is so lalented and willing to share.

Ya'll are welcome. The angel is not available on the web anymore. It was a Marie Osmond design.
When I make lace, I use the water soluble stabilizer that looks like fabric, I don't care for the clear stuff (just my opinion, but a lot of people love it). You can find it at walmart also.
