Floriani's Heat N Sta ® Fusible Tearaway Stabilizer is perfect for stabilizing lightweight woven fabrics that tend to shift during hooping or stitching in machine embroidery.
This tearaway stabilizer has a light fusible coating and was developed for embroidery on lightweight cotton, shirt-weight denim, linen and other woven fabrics that tend to distort or stretch when they are hooped or when the embroidery is forming.
Being a fusible tearaway, there's no need for messy spray adhesives which may sometimes leave a residue on the needle, machine and fabric. By fusing the stabilizer to the back of the garment, hooping will be easier and the garment will retain its shape without stretching.
-
Use for solid type embroidery designs on lightweight woven fabrics such as batiste, linen, shirt-weight, pin-point cotton, patchwork cottons etc.
-
Allows easy hooping and eliminates shift and stretch within the fabric
-
Fibres of the fabric will not move during the stitching process

-
No need for basting or spray adhesives
12" x 25yds Roll
Also available in a non-fusible version.
To use Heat N Sta ® Tearaway:
1. Fuse one layer of Heat N Sta ® to the back of the fabric to be embroidered. Be sure to use a piece at least 1" larger than the outer parameter of the hoop to insure proper stabilization.
Important: Use a low to medium temperature (260°, silk) setting on your iron. Do not touch the surface of your iron to the Heat N Sta ®, press from the fabric side or use a press cloth.
2. Hoop the garment and stabilizer with a "tight as a drum" tension
3. Embroidery your design.
Tip: If the design is denser than 8,000 stitches or if it is a poorly digitized design (too many stitches for the design's size), float one layer of Floriani Medium Tearaway Stabilizer between the hoop and the bed of the machine for each additional 10,000 stitches for added support.
4. Once the design is complete, remove the hoop from the machine and tear away the Heat N Sta ® from around the embroidery |
