I bought these stabilizers long ago. Now I do not know how they would be used in machine embroidery. They feel the same but holes are different size. They are white and picture is a closeup. Cuties, what can you tell me about these backings. Thanks, Suzanna

Looks like waffle weave tear-away to me?

Yes, thanks for the information. Suzanna
The lady at sewing store where I shop says people who work in the embroidery embellishment industry love this waffle weave tearaway because it removes so fast. I did enjoy it, but did not find it worth the extra expense (here).

Looks similar to a tear away one I bought the one with the small holes. The girl at the sewing machine dealer swore by it. I didn't like it much couldn't work out if I was using it wrong side out or not. It seemed to not glide like the others I am used to. But that said it was more likely me than the stabiliser.

My local Janome dealer sold me some of this waffle tearaway. I have used it many times and like the ease of tearing it away from designs, comes in larger roll to cut your own size which is good.

Thank you. I will try it on scrap first. Suzanna

I have two that look exactly like yours. The one with the small holes is wss, the other one cut-away. And I once used the cut-away when I made a batch of FSL Christmas decoratons (: So now I always wet a corner to make sure I use the right one for the job in hand.

Thank you very much for the information. When You used the WSS did you use one or two layers? Suzanna
Depends on the use. FSL gets a double layer, coton just one since I starch that most of the time.

I don't think I've ever seen this style around here. 17 years ago I bought a stabilizer that looked like this waffle weave...maybe a tad thicker... but when I ironed it, it melted into the fabric. So, I've learned to be cautious when trying out something that I've forgotten what it is.

I have one that looks exactly the same your one on the left and it is tearaway. Cut a small piece from each and soak it and see what happens.

Both are tearaway. Still not sure what I will use it for.
