Does design density influence the choice of stabilizers?

Another aspect of the design structure that can influence the choice of stabilization is the stitch density used in the program. The main thing to remember on this wise is the denser the design stitching; the more solid stabilization should be used. Cut-away backings, for once, is the optimum choice for even the densest of the designs. Such backings can withstand multiple punching, while still providing support to the fibers of the fabric. In cases when cut-away stabilizers can be used (e.g., with transparent fabrics), textile substitutions could help. Transparent organza, tulle, or similar “invisible” fabrics are champions for such projects as they’re durable and not expensive. The second best option is wash-away and heat-away backings. They’re also invisible; however, the support that they provide is temporary. Thus, after a few washes, the embroidery might lose its neat look. Stitches might get loose, the design’s shape might get crooked because of stretching, etc.

As you see, choosing stabilizers for machine embroidery is all about answering questions. Answers to questions about the designs, the fabrics, and the way the items are to be used make up the ground for the final decision. Get the answers, sum them all up together, and you’ll know what type of stabilizers is best for your project. Mind, the summed up resume is what counts, so it doesn’t matter which of the questions you tackle first. That being said, we could almost call it a day. However, there’re still a few extra helpful points and tips to be shared. Make sure to take them into account when making your call on the choice of machine embroidery stabilizers
