hoop a layer of the iron-on stabilizer (backing) under
the fabric in the embroidery frame without ironing it.
Attaching Iron-On Stabilizer (Backing) to Fabric
CAUTION
• When embroidering on thin or stretch fabrics, fabrics with a coarse weave or fabrics that easily allow the
stitching to shrink, be sure to use iron-on stabilizer (backing) for embroidering. If iron-on stabilizer
(backing) is not used while embroidering, the needle may bend or break or the pattern may become
misaligned.
Note
• Use a piece of iron-on stabilizer (backing)
that is larger than the embroidery frame.
When framing the fabric in the embroidery
frame, be sure that the stabilizer (backing) is
clamped on all edges in order to prevent
wrinkles in the fabric.

Memo
• When embroidering thin fabrics, such as
organza or lawn, use a water-soluble
stabilizer (backing). Water-soluble
stabilizers dissolve when washed, allowing
you to create beautiful embroidery that is
not stiff.
• When embroidering fabric with a nap, such
as towels or corduroy, hoop a layer of iron-
on stabilizer (backing) under the fabric in the
embroidery frame without ironing it.
• For other uses of stabilizer (backing), refer
to “Stabilizers (backing)” on page 251.
