Embroidery tear away refers to a type of stabilizer used in machine embroidery. Stabilizers are essential because they keep the fabric from shifting, puckering, or stretching during the embroidery process.
Tear Away Stabilizer – Quick Breakdown:
-
Purpose: Supports the fabric while stitching, then is removed afterward.
-
How it's used: It's placed on the back side of the fabric, and the embroidery is stitched through both the fabric and stabilizer.
- Removal: After stitching, you gently tear away the excess stabilizer around the design.
Best for:
-
Woven fabrics (like cotton, linen, denim)
- Designs with low to medium stitch density
Not ideal for: Stretchy or delicate fabrics — in those cases, a cut-away or wash-away stabilizer is usually better.
Why people use tear away:
- Easy cleanup — no scissors required
- Quicker to remove than cut-away
- Works great for clean, simple designs
