Attaching Iron-On Stabilizer (Backing) to Fabric
In order to prevent shrinkage of the stitching or misaligned patterns, we recommend that iron-on stabilizer
(backing) be used for embroidering.
CAUTION
1
Using a steam iron, affix the iron-on
stabilizer (backing) to the back of the fabric.
1 Adhesive side of iron-on stabilizer (backing)
2 Fabric (wrong side)
• When embroidering fabric that should not
be ironed or when embroidering an area
that is difficult to iron, hoop a layer of the
iron-on stabilizer (backing) under the fabric
in the embroidery frame without ironing it.
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.
1 Area of embroidery frame
2 Iron-on stabilizer (backing)
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 221.
●
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.
