Thanks for your suggestions on how to remove the black haze on my embroidery debacle.
But dang! none of them worked. I tried Carbona, Oxyclean, Synthropol, bar soap, liquid soap, etc.
I give! You win black cloud.
The moral of the story is: when the package of Transfer Eze says that you should test a small piece first, they mean it!
I couldn't bear to start this project again, so I turned to my trusted friend, applique. You never let me down, you always lift me up.
Applique, don't fail me now....
aaaah, at least something is going my way. Guess I'll stick with this for a while, embroidery is too stressful!
So only like 50 blocks to go....maybe by then I'll be ready to tempt the embroidery gods again.
Hugs and Stitches!
Megan
Sorry to hear none of these suggestions worked. I haven't had any issues with it but I am definitely going to heed the instructions and test a small piece of fabric first. :(

Don't give up yet! Spray some ZOUT on it and let it stay on overnight before rinsing. ZOUT will not damage anything but it sure takes stains out.

If all else fails, try some dye. The 'halo effect' could change the whole way you look at the piece. Works for me.
