Having read a post on Instagram about using a washaway stabiliser for buttonholes on garments I'm wondering if anyone has used this on embroidery and if so where do you get it from?
The post I read was from France and the corresponding item was much more expensive on Amazon UK than Amazon Fr. I also don't think I need as so much of it.
Any info gratefully received!

I got my last lot from Amazon but before that I bought mine from the shows I go to - can't remember exactly which stall but think Barnyarns may have been one.

Thank you @realale I know of Barnyarns from the shows will have a look at their site!

Linky (https://www.embroideredjust4u.co.uk/) - a good source for stabiliser.
If you only want small bits, I think I have a few I can send you.

Solufleece is the best washaway I have used, it looks a bit like a J cloth & is easy to sew on. The clear plastic stuff isn’t that good, unless you are using it in a hoop!

@StitchinTime thanks for the explanation. We use those here too, but we call them Handy-Wipes.
