There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I then went to my original design and drew on the paper, then cut the design out, and added sewing lines. (Great idea!) I attached the two pieces together and I had nice straight lines on my applique and there were no marks left on the fabric itself after tearing the stabilizer away.
I did need to use tweezers to pull some of the bits of stabilizer out of the threads after tearing it off the finished product, but that was worth it to have this stabilizer hold the fabric in place.
I also used some of the scrap pieces of the stabilizer (pieces I'd already torn away) on top of the fabric, but not ironed down, as I was sewing to keep the stretchy material feeding evenly in my machine. That worked great as well. I did that to protect the metallic blue finish on the fabric from being removed due to the adhesive used during the ironing process. (My test piece of ironing the stabilizer on the shiny side of the metallic fabric did lift off some of the blue.)
After removing the stabilizer, there is no residue left on the fabric. So, whatever they use for the adhesive is not left behind.

I will say to be careful when ironing it onto the right side of your work. Most instructions say to use very high heat, but I ended up putting those ugly iron shine marks on my shirts. I found that it worked just fine for me on medium-high heat. It will peel a little around the edges, but since my designs were small, it wasn't a big deal.
I have used it for both hand-embroidery and machine-embroidery, on 100% cotton fabrics, polycotton blends, and polyester felt.
It is a decent stabilizer, but you need something on top of the iron-on adhesive to make it stay on. I found this is especially true with hand-embroidery.
HAND EMBROIDERY:
You re-iron the stabilizer to the fabric every so often, or else your fabric will completely separate from the stabilizer, ruining the design you have traced and pretty much ruining your whole project. This runs true with the cotton, polycotton, and polyester felt fabrics I tried this on. However, it is the only stabilizer that I have found is perfect for hand-embroidery, as it is not too thick for the needle.
MACHINE EMBROIDERY:
If you are doing a one-time design on an article of clothing or a bag, this would probably be fine, especially if you don't need the finished embroidery design to be stiff.
I make patches on one long sheet of fabric, re-hooping when more space is needed. Before I re-hoop, I have to re-iron this stabilizer to the fabric - I have found that my fabric I like for patches, polyester felt, is the worst when it comes to having to re-iron. It also results in a very flimsy patch due to how thin the stabilizer is.
The take-away is, it's decent for small hand-embroidery designs when you feel like you need stabilizer, good for tracing, and it's good for one-time machine embroidery designs on garments or finished "products" (hats, bags, etc). It's not great for the main purpose I needed it for.
