Stitch Witchery REMOVAL
Help! I used Stitch Witchery to add a border on a skirt, which I have
subsequently removed from the skirt. The inside hem now has leftover Stitch Witchery all over it, which has generated giant snags in my brand new pantyhose! How on earth do I remove this stuff??? Thanks! gouda |

Thanks! gouda I'm sure there are better ways, but I did this with something years ago. Heat it with your iron held about an inch above the goo. Zap What about freezing it? I've done this with gum...

How Much do you like the skirt? If you have these two things, test on
a hidden spot, it can damage fabric. Everblum + denatured alcohol. (Rubbing alcohol won't work) Just dribble a little of each onto a piece of cheesecloth and rub on the stitch witchery. NOTE: Alcohol will remove the color from some fabrics. |

I buy Goo-Gone at TSWLTH and it does work wonders, even removing the heavy
glue on the windshield where the Tollway tags are glued, however I have not tried it on Stitch Witchery. Good luck! Emily |

I wouldn't use Goo-Gone on an iron. It's a petroleum distillate, and I wouldn't want to get it hot. OTOH, Dritz makes a sole-plate cleaner, intended to be used on a hot iron. I find it works well on transfer webbing and fusible interfacing adhesives jenn Before buying the Dritz stuff, try using an old credit card as a scraper. I have had good luck scraping stuff off. No chemicals, just a little elbow grease. -- Joanne @ stitches @ singerlady.reno.nv.us http://bernardschopen.tripod.com/ Life is about the journey, not about the destination. |
