I bought the noshow diagonal .It is marvellous.No puckering with dense embroidery. However with white Tshirt we can see some of the stabylizer as it is a cut away and not a tear away.Any tear-away available?

Hi,

Thanks for the interesting aritcle. I am from Johannesburg, South Africa and would like to know if this no show diagonal mesh is distributed to any particular South African company. If not, please advise how I can purchase some through you.

No one knows stabilizer like you do, Fred. Thanks for this important information.

So many embroiderers seldom see their projects after they have been washed and worn. Getting this information is vital for all who take great pride in their workmanship.

Best wishes to you and yours, Pat

Good article…Thank you.

“So it also can be used to protect the wearer against scratchy feeling stitches when metallic threads are used”.

1. How is this done? if the metallic thread is stitched on the fabric with the stablizer underneath it will still be scratchy.

2. How much stablizer would be used if you had a design with 37,000 stitches. What rule is followed to determine how much stablizer to use.

3. What brand are you using?

OMG what a great article. As a newcomer to this field, stablizer is always my biggest fear! I am always going through my paper work to read and find the right one for the right project. Thank you so much for the helpful information. C. Mullis
