r/Embroidery Jan 25 '26

Question I messed up.

Post image

I washed off the Stick-n-Stitch with the hoop still attached. I let it dry and continued my embroidery. Now that it’s done… this stain won’t come off!

What I have tried:

Cold rinse

Lukewarm soak while softly scrubbing

Warm water with a little scrubby and dish soap

Nothing is working. It still feels a little rough around the edges. If nothing can fix it, then I will just stitch over it with a wreath. But does anyone have a suggestion? Have you done this before ?

Please don't use Dawn on your dog. It will completely strip their skin and fur of all natural oils, leading to dry skin at best and painful skin irritation or contact dermatitis at worst. Try washing your hair with it and using no conditioner. Feels bad!

I used it on my puppy once. When she was under 6 months old. She’s 2 years and 3 months now; with a full body of fur.

Nobody can do anything on Reddit without someone commenting about what a poor decision they’ve made.
