    I received my new Trapunto embroidery designs and it calls for wash away thread so when design is finished it will not have bulky thread. Have any of you ladies used this before and if so how did you like it?Thanks in advance for all your input.

    I used it when doing some applique designs and it works really well. Our quilt shop teacher told us she used it to resew the seams on her husbands bathing suit one year for a joke, I think the joke worked well. Ha Ha

    It works well, but don't try to wet the end before threading it into the needle!
