A premium beading foundation for cabochon beading and bead applique, Lacy's Stiff Stuff doesn't fray or shred, and stays stiff when wet. No need for embroidery hoops or card backings.
Available in a 4.25 x 5.5 inch sheet
ADVANTAGES OF USING LACY'S Stiff Stuff:
- This material lasts--and lasts, and lasts. It is tough enough to use even the smallest scraps (some of us really use even the tiny snips to shore up rounded cabochons, and scraps make great free form pieces).
- LACY'S Stiff Stuff has been dyed and used for outdoor signs that have stood up perfectly through New Mexico sun and snow for more than 8 years; it even has occasional industrial applications (ask Jack:)...and still, your needle glides through this durable product so you have less stress on your hands and your needles. The only thing that might wear out is your thread!
- No need for frames, embroidery hoops or card backing. LACY'S Stiff Stuff remains firm all the way to the edge as you work.
- LACY'S Stiff Stuff can be dyed to any background color you wish, and will still be firm!
- Cabochons can be glued to LACY'S Stiff Stuff with an E-6000-type glue and they will stay put. No need to bezel around cabs--even dichroic glass cabs are secure on LACY'S Stiff Stuff.
- Since LACY'S Stiff Stuff is a porous material, you can begin to work about 20 minutes after gluing--no need to wait until tomorrow.
- Bead embroidery patterns can be drawn on, traced through, or applied using NEW LACY'S Self-Adhesive Pattern Sheets.
