⚡ At a Glance
- • Stitch Support: Permanent cut-away backing that helps stitches stay stable and maintains design shape
- • Best for: Home sewers and small commercial embroidery on knits, fleece, denim and unstable fabrics
- • Not ideal for: Very high stitch-density designs without adding extra layers of stabiliser
Medium-weight, permanent cut-away stabiliser sold as a 12-inch by 50-yard roll. Designed to stabilise light to medium stitch densities and to remain affixed through repeated washing.
Permanent Shape Retention – With permanent cut-away backing
Permanent adhesive stabiliser stays attached to the embroidery after cutting away the excess, so the backing remains part of the finished item. Polyester construction resists fibre breakdown so the backing keeps its support through laundering.
Designs hold their original shape and resist distortion after repeated washes, helping garments and accessories look neater for longer.
Versatile Hooping and Sizing – Thanks to 12-inch roll width
A 12-inch (30cm) width allows cutting into a variety of sizes to fit most home and commercial hoops. A continuous roll format gives the freedom to trim custom pieces without wasteful pre-cut limits.
Ability to cut variable sizes saves time when switching hoops or projects and reduces material waste for multi-size work.
Skin-Friendly Material – With 100% first-class polyester
Acid- and lead-free polyester means the stabiliser meets basic safety expectations for garment use next to skin. The fabric-like backing does not contain harsh chemicals that might cause irritation.
Safe for use on children’s and everyday garments, reducing the risk of itching or discomfort when used on skin-touch clothing.
