Simthread Embroidery Cutaway Stabilizer for Invisible Support

Simthread Stabilizers - An Essential Component in Your Sewing and Embroidery Projects

What is an embroidery stabilizer, and why is it important? Embroidery stabilizers play a crucial role in embroidery and sewing projects. They provide support to the fabric during the embroidery stitching process, preventing the fabric from puckering or stretching. Typically, three types of stabilizers are commonly used in home embroidery: tear-away, cut-away, and water-soluble stabilizers or films.

Choosing the right stabilizer: Tear-away, Cut-away, or No-show Mesh? The choice of stabilizer depends on the specific embroidery design and the fabric being used.

Tear-away stabilizers are lightweight and easy to remove after the embroidery is complete. They are suitable for use on tightly woven fabrics, such as jackets, denim, cotton, polyester, linen, and leather. These stabilizers come in pre-cut sizes (8"x8" and 10"x12") or in rolls (12"x20M).

Cut-away stabilizers need to be carefully trimmed away with scissors after the embroidery is finished. They are commonly used on lightweight woven materials, stretchy knits, and other unstable fabrics. Like the tear-away stabilizers, they are available in pre-cut sizes (8"x8" and 10"x12") and rolls (12"x10 yards).

The no-show mesh stabilizer, also known as the invisible stabilizer, is another type of cut-away stabilizer. Made of a nylon mesh material, it is soft, light, and recommended for use on elastic fabrics, silk, and light-colored materials.

Water-soluble films are another category of stabilizers, primarily used as a topping film on napped materials like towels, terry cloth, velvet, and corduroy. These stabilizers can also be used for free-standing lace (FSL) projects and on lightweight fabrics. They are available in different thicknesses (35μm and 90μm) and roll sizes (30cm x 10 yards, 30cm x 20 yards).

Simthread Embroidery Stabilizer Specifications and Features ★ Simthread's cut-away no-show mesh stabilizer is an excellent choice for light-colored, soft woven fabrics due to its semi-transparent and soft texture. The soft, spun polymesh material protects the skin from the rough thread parts on the back of the embroidery design.

★ The embroidery stabilizer is 12" x 10 yards per roll, allowing you to easily cut sheets to fit your specific requirements.

★ Made of 100% nylon material, the invisible embroidery stabilizer backing provides a permanent, stable foundation for your embroidery projects, withstanding repeated washing and wear.

★ To use, hoop the no-show mesh stabilizer together with the fabric, then stitch. After finishing your project, cut away and clean the stabilizer around the stitches. This stabilizer can also be used to embroider patches by hooping two cross layers of the stabilizer without any fabric.

★ Important note: This no-show mesh stabilizer is not fusible and cannot be ironed onto the fabric.
