Frequently Asked Questions

Madeira Wash Away is a water-soluble special thread used as a basting thread. It dissolves completely when washed.

The thread is threaded as the top thread and used normally for basting. When the finished workpiece is washed, it dissolves completely.

It is ideal for quilting and patchwork projects, temporary markings, and basting where thread remnants should not be visible.

The thread is transparent, 200 m on a spool, weight approx. 35 g. It is water-soluble and leaves no residue at 60 °C.

Since it is water-soluble, it should be stored dry, protected from moisture, to prevent premature dissolution.
