 Working with dissolvable stabilizers( water soluble) can be a little addictive. Bowls and other 3 dimensional objects are built up of layers of thread, yarns and other fibers all stitched onto a water soluble stabilizer base. Once a firm material is formed, the stabilizer is rinsed away and the new material is left to dry over a form.There are numerous stabilizers on the market, but we have a few favorites, depending on what you are making.
