A fabric stabilizer stiffens the fabric to keep it steady and stable during stitching, helping to eliminate the risks of warping, puckering, or stretching. A fabric stabilizer is an essential extra for anyone interested in embroidery or detailed stitchwork. It helps keep the fabric stiff while stitching to avoid puckering or over-stretching, for a stable, accurate finished piece. There are dozens of stabilizers available so pick the one that’s right for your projects. Tear-a-Way stabilizer is easy to apply to fabric and simply tears away once the work is complete.
