OESD?Ultra?Clean?&?Tear?20″?×?10?yds?#HBT17?20
A soft, medium-weight tear-away stabilizer from OESD designed for embroidery on woven, non-stretch fabrics. It is engineered to provide support for medium- to high-stitch-count designs and is sized 20″ wide by 10 yards long.Key Features
-
Medium weight tear-away stabilizer — ideal for designs of moderate to high density.
-
Softens with laundering — any stabilizer residue gradually breaks down in wash so the finish becomes softer over time.
-
Size: 20″ width × 10 yds length (white) — SKU HBT17-20.
-
Suitable for use on woven fabrics (e.g., cotton quilts, towels) rather than stretchy knits.
Use Cases / Applications
-
Embroidery on 100% cotton quilting fabric, home décor, blankets, towels — where a tear-away stabilizer is sufficient and fabric is not highly stretchy.
-
Designs where you want less remaining stabilizer bulk and a softer back after washing.
-
Projects needing clean tear-away removal (i.e., minimal leftover stabilizer compared to heavier cut-away types).
-
Woven fabrics that will be laundered repeatedly and benefit from a stabilizer that softens with time.
Technical / Usage Tips
-
Recommend cutting slightly larger than hoop size, hoop under tension with fabric and stabilizer together for best results.
-
After stitching, carefully tear away the stabilizer before laundering; any remaining fibres will soften in the wash.
-
Ideal for non-stretch fabrics—if the fabric stretches, recommend a cut-away or stretch-specific stabilizer instead.
-
Use a lighter thread colour or test stitching on white base to ensure thread shows well; contrast is key on embroidery.
-
For optimal finish: advocate trimming around embroidered outlines and pressing with a suitable iron to flatten design.
