I was having a lot of wrinkles around my designs so I starched it good and put ne show mesh on the back and flouted a piece of tear away. It seams to help not hooping both. Thank you for the help.
I spray starch and use soil settlement something plumers use real cheap use 2pieces one in each direction so the fibers run different ways works good if it a real dense design I will float another piece of tearaway
