Wash-Away Mesh stabilizer is temporary and dissolves completely in water.  It is great for doing projects such as lace, cutwork, appliqué, quilting or anything that needs stabilization while doing the embroidery but when you want absolutely no stabilizer left behind on the project.  Wash-Away Mesh, when hooped correctly, will help prevent puckering, pulling and distortion while embroidering.  After embroidering, gently tear (or cut away if the embroidery or fabric is very fine) the bulk of the stabilizer, the rest will wash away when laundered.  Store this stabilizer in an airtight container for longest life.

On projects where you will not machine launder the item and want to remove the rest of the stabilizer just spritz it away with warm water and then press your project.
