What is stabilizer?
11/30/2024
A stabilizer is a foundation used in machine embroidery that supports the material during the embroidery stitching process. Stabilizers keep your materials from stretching, puckering, or becoming too stiff. Some stabilizers remain under the stitches of finished projects while others are washed away, cut out, torn away, or even ironed away. Choosing the best stabilizer for the type of material can make or break the finished appearance of the project. To achieve professional results, you must choose a suitable embroidery design and the most appropriate stabilizer. Not every design is intended to be embroidered on every type of material, so a good rule of thumb is the thinner the material, the less dense the design should be per square inch.
