Vilene Stabilizer
I am searching for Vilene, a stabilizer for sewing lace.?
Where have you bought it and what is a fair price and should I buy by the yard or by precut sheet lengths?
vilene is a brand name of water soluble stabilizer (wss). here are a couple of internet sites you can purchase it from.

i normally use sulky brand wss and i purchase it from joann fabrics. it depends on the sales they are running if i buy it by the yard or precut sheets.
i belong to many embroidery sewing machine yahoo groups. wss is discussed a lot on the groups. someone may be having a sale or doing a group buy right now. here are links to some of the groups.
