About this range
Fabri Solvy ist das wasserlösliche Vlies von Sulky mit 40 g/m², das sich anfühlt und verhält wie ein Gewebe. Es ist unempfindlich gegen die Wärme des Maschinenbetts und lässt sich allein einspannen — damit gelingt freistehende Spitzenstickerei. Nach dem Sticken wäscht es sich rückstandslos aus.
Sewing tips
- Für Lace-Stickerei die Lage allein einspannen und direkt besticken.
- Als Auflage oder Unterlage verwendbar, je nachdem, wo der Halt gebraucht wird.
- Nach dem Sticken in warmem Wasser ausspülen, bis nichts mehr steif ist.
- Das Vlies verträgt die Wärme des Nähmaschinenbetts ohne Verzug.
- Trocken lagern, damit es nicht vorzeitig weich wird.
Water-soluble films have a drawback: they are slippery, shift in the hoop and react to the warmth building up at the machine bed. Fabri Solvy takes the other route — it behaves like a light woven and can therefore be gripped and hooped with confidence.
That makes it fit for the same jobs as a sturdy film: hoop it alone and stitch directly for free-standing lace designs. It works just as well laid over textured fabrics as a topping, or underneath as a backing, depending on where support is missing.
After stitching it washes out without residue. If you are looking for a printable and additionally self-adhesive version, you will find it in the heavier Sticky Fabri-Solvy.
Frequently asked questions
Why a stabiliser rather than a film?
Because it handles better: it does not slip in the hoop and takes the warmth of the machine bed. On long stitching runs that is a noticeable difference, especially with free-standing designs.
Topping or backing?
Either works. As a topping it holds down the pile of textured fabrics, as a backing it steadies the cloth from behind. What matters is where the support is missing — above on towelling, below on thin goods.
Does it really dissolve completely?
Yes, it washes out without residue. With dense designs, rinse more thoroughly, because more material sits between the stitches; warm water speeds up the dissolving noticeably.
