Use embroidery stabilizer to provide extra support. After
embroidering, carefully remove the stabilizer.
■ Embroidering Small Fabrics
When embroidering small pieces of fabric, use
temporary spray adhesive to attach the small piece
of the fabric to stabilizer, and then hoop the
stabilizer in the embroidery frame. If you do not
wish to use a temporary spray adhesive, attach the
fabric to the stabilizer with basting stitches.
