It bonds firmly to fabric with a peel-off release sheet, accepts ink or handwriting for pattern transfer, and rinses away cleanly, making it suitable as both a backing and a topping for hand or machine work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this stabiliser keep fabric from shifting during embroidery?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adhesive side adheres to the back of the fabric to stop sliding, puckering, and misalignment while stitching.
