Tear Away Machine Embroidery Stabilizer Backing 8x8 - 100 Precut Sheets - Medium Weight 1.8 oz- Fits 4x4 and 6x6 Hoops

Worked just fine. Embroidered some names on pajamas and it tore away great

Works great

While looking for sew in interfacing to make masks, I had a hard time finding the recommended brands and decided to give this a try. I made two patterns- the standard pleated square and the Olson mask, opting for the second since it has a pocket (in case this didnt work out). I washed the interfacing by hand to see if it could even hold up to water, then cut it, basted it, and made my masks. They turned out stiffer than those Id initially made with fusible interfacing, but felt like they filtered the air better- Id say slightly more than a standard dust mask (bear in mind this is all subjective). On the pleated masks this added quite a bit more bulk to the pleats, so going slow is important (or use your walking foot if you have it). After they were made and used I hand washed them in hot water (about 140°F) and disinfectant and hung them to dry. The masks felt just as sturdy and stable as they did pre-wash, though they did need a quick press. As for whether these are suitable for hospitals, Im unsure, as I currently make masks for friends and family. In terms of allergens, Im a rather allergic person (hah) and had no trouble with this material. Your mileage may vary, however. At minimum its probably best to make sure to encase the interfacing between two layers of fabric. I plan to keep making masks, and Im so glad I found this material. Edit: meant to say, I also basted this in to the face pattern pieces of the Olson mask, so as not to worry about adding filters, and it worked wonders. Be sure to trim the corners before turning!

Works as expected, easy to hoop.

This Tear Away wash firm and held the stitches securely. Tearing away was a breeze. When used with a heavy Satin Stitch it held up. and was easily removed later.

Could not find any stabilizers that were more than 12” wide; this product works great for embroidery with larger hoops.

I have a lot of waste with these, but honestly it’s worth it to me for the convenience… very sturdy and easy to use!

Just the right weight not too thick love it

The size was cut exactly what I needed

When I got & opened this stabilizer I immediately checked my order to make sure I ordered the right thing. It’s labeled medium weight but be aware it’s thick and super stiff. I still wonder if I got a roll of heavyweight that was mis-labeled. I kept it figuring I’d use it anyway, but it’s just too heavy for what I’m doing. If that’s what you’re looking for then this is a good quality stabilizer, but if you’re looking for something between no-show and card stock then this might not be for you. :)
