Adhesive (Iron-on) stabilizer

Place the wrong side of fabric and the glossy side of the stabilizer together. Fold up a corner of the stabi- lizer and fuse it with an iron.

NOTES:

Fold up a corner of the stabilizer, to make it easier to peel off the excess stabilizer after stitching.

Ironing temperatures vary depending on the type of adhesive type stabilizer being used.

Stabilizers

To obtain the best quality embroidery, it is important to use stabilizers.

Types of stabilizer

Tear-away Stabilizer is made from a fiber that will tear easily. Use tear-away stabilizers for stable woven fabrics. After stitching, tear away the stabilizer so that the small portion left in the back of the stitching will not affect the wear.

Iron-on Stabilizer is an adhesive type stabilizer for knits and all kinds of unstable fabrics. Fuse it to the wrong side of fabric with an iron.

Cut-away Stabilizer is a non-woven fabric that does not tear. Cut the excess portion after stitching. Use cutaway stabilizers for knits and all kinds of unstable fabrics. Water Soluble Stabilizer will dissolve in water. Use this stabilizer for cutwork or lace embroidery, and also for the right side of looped fabrics such as toweling to avoid loops coming through the embroidery.

Sticky Stabilizer is a sticky paper used for securing a small fabric or work that cannot be secured in the hoop. It is also used for velvet and other napped fabric that would be permanently marked by the hoop.

Usage

The stabilizer should be attached to the wrong side of fabric. More than one layer may be required.

Felt or stable fabrics do not need to be stabilized and you may embroider directly on them.

For firm fabrics, you may place a thin paper under the fabric.

The non-adhesive type should be used when embroidering fabric, which cannot be ironed or for sections, which are difficult to iron.

Cut the stabilizer larger than the embroidery hoop and set it on the hoop so that the entire piece is fastened within the hoop to prevent looseness of the fabric.

Template

When positioning the fabric into the hoop, use the template to align the centerlines on the fabric with the center of the hoop. First mark the centerlines on the fabric and place the fabric on the outer hoop. Place the inner hoop and template over the fabric and adjust the fabric placement.
