Embellish Fusible Dissolvable Tearaway Embroidery Stabilizer - 20" x 10yd Roll
Embellish® Fusible Dissolvable Tearaway is a temporary fusible, light tearaway stabilizer made using a unique "Non-Woven" technique. It is made with a combination of 50% soft tearaway fibers and 50% water-soluble fibers, making it very easy to remove from delicate embroidery, satin or decorative stitching. Use with light to medium, open airy embroidery designs on fabrics such as: cotton, linen, batiste, kitchen flour sack towels, rayon, and silk. Use the non-fusible version, Embellish® Dissolvable Tearaway, as additional support, if needed, by floating a piece under the embroidery hoop when the design stitch count is more than 10,000 stitches in a 4”x 4” hoop. Because of the unique 50/50 fiber combination, this stabilizer leaves a very soft-hand when laundered, because half of the fibers wash-away.
Contents:
Made in America. Constructed of 50% soft tearaway fibers and 50% water-soluble fibers with a light temporary, fusible coating. 1.8 oz.
Stitch Count:
Holds up to 10,000 embroidery stitches in a 4”x4” hoop.
To Use:
- Fuse one layer of the stabilizer to the back of the material. Be sure to use a piece at least one inch larger than the outer perimeter of the hoop to ensure proper stabilization.
*Important – Use a low temp (Silk Setting) on your iron. Do NOT touch the surface of your iron to Embellish® Fusible Dissolvable Tearaway, press from the fabric side or use a press cloth (natural fibers such as muslin or cotton). All irons heat differently. The iron temperature given is a starting point. If you find that you are not getting a good fuse, slowly increase your iron’s temperature, until you achieve a good bond, between the fabric and stabilizer and ensure the stabilizer can be torn away easily. If it won’t release easilywhen torn away, the iron temperature is too high. - Hoop the material along with the fused stabilizer, making sure the material and stabilizer are taut.
- If the design has more than 10,000 stitches in a 4”x 4” hoop, “float” a piece of non-fusible Embellish® Dissolvable Tearaway under the hoop for added support.
- Add an embroidery topper on top of the hooped item (either Embellish® Rinse-Away Clear Topper or Embellish® Iron-Away Clear Topper).
- Embroider the design.
To Remove:
- Remove the material from the hoop. Remove the topper, following the topper product sheet, found in this workbook.
- Hold your fingers over the bobbin thread and tear away as much of the stabilizer as possible, starting with the “floater.”
- If the iron temperature was too hot during the fusing process of the Embellish® Fusible Dissolvable Tearaway, it might be necessary to re-heat the stabilizer, using a Silk Setting, for it to release from the material.
- *Optional Method for Delicate Embroidery or Stitching - Wet around the edge of the design using a Q-Tip, sponge, foam paint brush or envelope sealer. Wait about 5 seconds to allow the water to activate the water-soluble portion of the stabilizer. Or, lay a damp cloth on the back side, until fibers start to dissolve. This method is perfect for a project that you are not going to launder.
Laundering and Care:
Launder and dry the item according to the fabric material fiber content. Stabilizer remnants will continue to wash out in the laundry with a mild detergent and agitation.
