This "bi-directional" (tears in both directions) embroidery tear-away is ideal for stable fabric.

Color: Black

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
