oz biodegradable tearaway / washaway adhesive or "sticky" stabilizer with a
VERY needle friendly adhesive.

hoop items such as heavy towels, CD cases, backpacks, cuffs, collars, socks
etc.
With Eco
Stick embroidery in every area is possible.
Eco Stick being a tearaway / washaway you will not need to pick out stabilizer
remnants from open designs as it will disappear after an initial wash.
It is used for fabrics that can be marred by the hooping process to avoid hoop
"ring burn" like velvet, suede, ultra suede, some leathers , satins. and other
delicate fabrics.
Eco Stick utilizes the latest and the most needle friendly adhesive available.
It will avoid gummy build up and residue on needles and hoops which can lead
to excessive thread breaks.
Please note that Eco Stick will support medium density stitch counts up to
approximately 12,000 stitches. For higher and more dense stitch counts just
add another layer of tearaway - hooped or "floated" under the hoop.

Fuse & Tear is a
fusible tear-away stabilizer with a low melt fusible coating. Developed
for embroidery on light weight woven fabrics Fuse & Tear® is for shirt
weight fabrics, linens etc eliminating any movement or slippage when they are
hooped or while embroidering. This fusible tearaway eliminates the need
for messy spray adhesives which leave a residue on needles, hoops and fabrics.
The low melt 260 degree F fusible was made to prevent
scorching or shrinking of fabric.
The fusible bond prevents movement or slippage leading to accurate
registration.
This product offers a clean & easy tear from your design after embroidering.
• Use for dense designs on lightweight woven fabrics such as linens & shirt
weight fabrics.
• Eliminates any shift or movement of the fabric while embroidering
• Will support approximately 6,000 stitch count of a moderately dense well
digitized design.
• Tears away very cleanly.
• Eliminates messy or toxic spray adhesives!
Directions:
1. Fuse one layer of Fuse and Tear to the
back of the fabric to be embroidered before hooping. Be sure to use a piece
slightly larger than the hoop to insure proper hooping tension
*Important - Use a low to medium temp 260 degrees F - silk setting on
your iron. A press cloth underneath your iron is recommended.
2. Hoop the garment and stabilizer. Try to achieve or approach a “tambourine
skin” type tension in your hoop.
3. Embroider your design. If the design is dense or more than the suggested
number of stitches float another layer of tearaway under the hoop and the
first tearaway layer for extra support.
4. Once the design is complete tearaway the excess stabilizer.

Fuse Cloud Cover Stitch over the back of a finished design to cover scratchy
stitches on the backside of embroidery designs. It is soft and sheer - ideal
for baby garments, golf shirts, or tees. Anywhere to avoid a scratchy irritant
to the skin!
Cloud Cover has a very unique multi directional stretch. It bonds at a
moderate temperature with your fabric but will in no way adversely affect the
bulk or drapability of your garment.
It is also used on silks and satins in order to arrest any unraveling or
shredding while sewing.
Iron should be set at 300 F or wool setting, iron for 8-12
seconds with a press cloth on top. DO NOT USE STEAM!

Please note: Cloud Cover Stitch is not a stabilizer.

"Diagonal" mesh is a nylon mesh stabilizer with a diagonal embossing
pattern. It is more multi-directionally stable than previous versions.
Therefore it will hold more stitches per single layer than the regular
perpendicular patterned mesh leading to better and tighter registration or
definition per single layer. If you add a mid weight tearaway as a sandwich
it can hold an even higher stitch count!

By fusing the
stabilizer to the back of the garment, the fabric will not move or stretch
leading to better registration. The stabilizer is temporarily attached to
the entire area where the embroidery will be stitched eliminates the use of
messy spray adhesives which only "spot" tack and allow shifting of the
fabric and are quite messy leaving residue on needles hoops and machine
parts
We use a low melt fusible -
260 F so as not to scorch or shrink your fabric.
When you are finished with your embroidery, re-fuse the edges- peel back and
trim around your design.
One layer should support
10-12,000 stitches of a moderately dense design.
If you sandwich a tearaway behind it, it should hold a lot more!
Use the fusible version to cover up scratchy stitches on the back of the
embroidery.

you to embroider those hard to hoop items with rarely any residue on your

or nap. Stitching perforates the stabilizer making it easy to remove. Any remaining stabilizer is easily
torn away or dissolved with water. Light weight, with no stretch in
any direction.

this product has a crispy feel to it and it is normal for it to perforate as
you sew.
