Question catching threads

I just finished hand stitching a Xmas Tree Panel..45 x 36..background swirils, oranments and all the pine needles using embroidery thread. Will also have lights.. Have of course alot on knots which i tried my best to bury...but some breaks happen..knots are under the surface but some tails did snap off..want to make sure they stay put if in need of rinsing due to dust, etc....
To stabilize the threads can I use a fusible sheerweight stabilizer on the back? Just one large piece and iron on? (Will try to post pic but not really good at it.. keeps saying up load error)...and if so will the stabilizer stay on during a rinsing?
