SULKY® PAPER SOLVY

Paper Solvy dissolves in water in approx. 10 seconds. Used to transfer sample patterns via drawing, copying, tracing or printing. If the patterns are larger than a sheet of Paper Solvy, several sheets can be stuck together using KK 2000 (a temporary spray adhesive), or similar product. Paper Solvy turns a light shade of brown when ironed. This discolouring has no effect on the paper‘s solubility. If the pattern is printed on Paper Solvy using an ink jet printer, care should be taken that water-proof ink is used. We recommend carrying out a test printing session beforehand, sewing and washing the results.
Because Paper Solvy has an actual wood-pulp component, all of it must be thoroughly rinsed away the first time it is wetted. Be sure that no pieces remain and that all the "slickness" is gone, because any that remains could be wood pulp and will be very difficult to remove once the water-soluble component is gone. For this reason, it is not recommended as a topper or for free-motion work, unless you are doing only very even, elongated, machine-fed, straight stitching.


Sewing by numbers:
1. Transfer pattern onto Paper Solvy and cut out  the desired block size in addition to seam allowance.
2. Sew on material sections on to the back of the Paper Solvy in numerical order (stitch length 1.5-2).
3. After the sewing stage is complete, dissolve Paper Solvy in water.

Crazy for fancy stitch:
1. Transfer pattern onto Paper Solvy and cut out the desired block size in addition to seam allowance.
2. Sew on material remnants, ribbons etc., until the block is fully covered.
3. Decorate the seams with random fancy stitching (using the sewing machine or by hand), beads, etc.
4. After the sewing stage is complete, dissolve Paper Solvy in water.
