Stabilizer for Embroidery Machines
#1
My husband bought me a Brother SE400 embroidery machine. It mentions using stabilizer but not what kind on what material.
Would someone be willing to discuss this with me? I want to embroider names on some stretchy tutu tops for my grand daughters.
Thanks!

Wanted to add that I am researching stabilizers but I want to know what works best for you.

Most of us who emb. find what works for us by trial and error. I dont like the sticky stabilizer so I spray my tear away with Kk2000.Buy a few t shirts at Goodwill or use your old ones and practice on. I also suggest you try your design on scraps before you put it on something good.

Here are two links as well for stabilizers

For stretchy fabrics, I would use a medium-weight, cutaway stabilizer behind the design. There are several brands of fusible (iron-on) cutaway stabilizers that work well for knits. Inspira has a nice selection (second link) - my favorite is Inspira Stitch Point Cutaway.
