This is a fabulous products for stumpwork and embroidery. It is a clear plastic film which looks like transparent fabric and once you have embroidered the shape through the water-soluble fabric, cut it out and place in a bowl of water until the fabric has dissolved.
I do teach this method in my books and it is a very useful way of making small shapes in a hoop, as the water-soluble will fit in the hoop, even if the small shapes do not.
In the pack is a  20 x 20cm (8" x 8") block, which fits well in a 15cm (6") hoop.
