A stitching "fabric" for applique. Originally used by Kimberly Smith to make the dragonfly wings in a needlepoint design (available through Bedecked and Beadazzled online). Use it to stitch wings, flower petals, and other dimensional elements. Carefully cut into the applique pieces, then attach to your design.

This is a 34-count white mesh made of 100% polyester used for needlepoint, applique or string art. The advantage of buying Polysil canvas in frames is that it is ready-to-stitch. Buy just the right size you need, already mounted in a frame that you can remove later or keep as a border of your design. Dimensions refer to the exposed area of Polysil.
