1“BASIC OPERATION” key

Attaching stabilizer material

Attach a stabilizer material to the reverse side of the area of fabric to be embroidered.

It is not necessary to attach a stabilizer material to fabric which is already sufficiently stiff. For thin, knit and stretch fabric which may move in the frame, attach the fabric to a non-woven stabilizer material before embroidering.

The stabilizer material should be framed along with the fabric for the best results.

There are many types of non-woven stabilizers available on the market. The goal of the stabilizer is to prevent stretch or movement of the fabric. Best results for stretch, knit or light weight fabrics will be obtained by using a light weight non- woven iron-on stabilizer.
