PREPARATION BEFORE EMBROIDERING
Be sure to turn off the power before carrying out the following.
Attaching stabilizer material
Attach a stabilizer material to the reverse side of the area of
fabric to be embroidered.
It is not necessary to attach a stabilizer material to fabric which
is already sufficiently stiff. For thin, knit and stretch fabric which
may move in the frame, attach the fabric to a non-woven
stabilizer material before embroidering.
The stabilizer material should be framed along with the fabric
for the best results.
There are many types of non-woven stabilizers available on the
market. The goal of the stabilizer is to prevent stretch or
movement of the fabric. Best results for stretch, knit or light
weight fabrics will be obtained by using a light weight non-
woven iron-on stabilizer.

From normal fabrics to thick fabrics
It’s a good idea to place a piece of stabilizer fabric under (not
within) the frame holding the fabric being embroidered.
