Directions for Use and Care For paper or foundation piecing: If possible, set your printer’s paper feed settings to “Decorative or Heavy Paper.” If your printer does not have this setting, load only one sheet of Print & Piece at a time. Copy or print your favorite foundation or paper-piecing pattern directly onto Print & Piece stabilizer. Cover the numbered sections as directed with your favorite fabrics until the block is complete. Remove the stabilizer: once the stitching is complete, lightly dampen only the stitching lines with a wet sponge or cotton swab – the stabilizer tears away gently without distorting the stitches! You can alternately leave the stabilizer within the block completely. When the quilt is laundered, the watersoluble fibers will dissolve and the non-soluble fibers will leave behind a very subtle loft. Create a test block with this method before applying it to an entire quilt to make sure you are happy with the results! For stabilizing decorative or satin stitches: Place one layer of Print & Piece directly under fabric and stitch. To remove the stabilizer, lightly dampen only the stitching with a sponge or cotton swab – the stabilizer will pull away without distorting delicate heirloom, satin or decorative stitches! Washer and Dryer Safe Cool water and low drying temperature recommended. Press using a medium setting on your iron.
