The article said to hoop the stabilizer, draw a line on the paper for centering the ribbon, removing a part of the paper to stick the ribbon to. It went on to suggest that to do several labels, don't unhoop the stabilizer but tear away the ribbon and cover the hole.
I'm wondering about it holding the next ribbon firmly enough to stitch out.

Suggestions anyone?
You can just cover the hole with another scrap of the sticky stabilizer--stick it on from the bottom & you've still got adhesion.
