New brothread Machine Embroidery Stabilizer Reviews Summary

Usability

Pros:

• "It is easy to use and tears off smoothly every time."
• "Sturdy when hooping and embroidering, and it's very easy to tear away after."
• "I've been using this tear away stabilizer for hand embroidery... and it's been holding up great!"
• "The pre-cut squares make it SO MUCH easier to grab and go. Great prices, too!"
• "I love the convenience of the precut sheets and the size is perfect for my 9x9 hoop."
• "Love the ease of these! Easy to just grab a sheet instead of having to mess with a roll."
• "They are precut so all you do is pop them in your hoop and get started."

Cons:

• "One layer is too thin and tears and it does not tear away cleanly, long strands of the stabilizer were left behind and had to be trimmed with scissors."
• "If I tear this the wrong way, it pulls my stitches, which can tear and distort them."
• "Tears a little to easy, messing up embroidery, gets knotted."
• "This is VERY THIN. I am so disappointed because I have to use 4 sheets per item instead of the 2 I anticipated."
• "It's not horrible, but just requires more time, because you have to be careful not to distort the stitches when removing it (a bit more than usual)."
• "removal takes a bit more pulling on the clothing/stabilizer and worry it will distort fabric."
• "It is very difficult to tear away without putting some strain on the stitches."

Product Features

Cons:

• "I would never use this product for backing for a garment since it is so stiff."

• "Super flimsy stabilizer - definitely not medium grade as advertised- fabric shifts in the hoop using this product."
