I usually always use scroll rods when I stitch but while traveling I use a hoop. On my latest project I have noticed a where I was trying to attach my light/magnifier it left a discoloration on my cream linen. I don’t usually wash my projects before framing because I rarely have this problem using a scroll rod . I also used hand dyed threads which I am worried will run if I wash. Any suggestion to remove the mark left on the light fabric where the hoop was?
Better is to wash it, dry it flat and then iron it cottonstand with a thin servet or other what you use, make it a little wet and press your work at the behind, I do it by my work. Roll your work in a towell, if you bring it to the framer.
