Cloud Cover StitchFuse 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! Note: Cloud Cover Stitch is not a stabilizer. Item Number: #cloud-10yd (11½" x 10 yds) |

No Show Nylon MeshSoft, drapable, and almost invisible! Also available in a FUSIBLE version! Holds more stitches! It is perfect for left chest logos, pique knits, T Shirts, infant items and microfiber apparel. 1.5 oz. 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. One layer should support 10-12,000 stitches of a moderately dense design. If you add a midweight tearaway as a sandwich it can hold an even higher stitch count! NON-fusible: available in White, Beige & Black fusible |

Press & TearReplaces our Peel & Stick stabilizer. Easy Embroidery for those hard to hoop items! For optimal use, please slow down your machine, use a SILICONE or TEFLON spray on your needles. We also highly recommend using a titanium needle. Press & Tear is a needle friendly pressure sensitive adhesive tearaway stabilizer. It allows you to embroider those hard to hoop items with rarely any residue on your needles. Perfect for those difficult jobs like: CD Cases, Cooler tops, heavy towels or blankets, collars and cuffs, socks, and heavy jackets or anything that is difficult to hoop. Even tiny baby socks are easy with Press & Tear. You hoop the stabilizer, not the sock! Just place the stabilizer in the hoop, release the paper backing, and lay and smooth out the baby sock. Pin back the additional sock area out of the way and you have a smooth surface ready to embroider. When finished just release the embroidery, and remove any excess from the back. Releases with ease, but holds perfectly while embroidering. The stabilizer is a 1.5 oz, dense, "wet laid" non-directional, non-woven tearaway that contains needle lubricants to promote needle glide and reduce sticky build up. It tears away cleanly and easily leaving none of the fuzzies behind. Eliminates the use of spray adhesives. Press & Tear Directions
