Good point, Margo! I'm sewing in the boondocks at the moment, but I'll try Stable Stuff when I return to civilization! :shock:

While sewing the light green leaves at the base of the tulip flower, I was having problems with chewing up the skinny points. To remedy this, I put a piece of notebook paper under each point just for the last 2-3 stitch patterns. It worked great! The points are now nice and sharp, and it's easy to remove the small bit of paper residue with tweezers.
