Stabilizers & Interfacings
Liquid/Spray Stabilizers: Wonderful for sheer fabrics from which all
Notes
stabilizer must be removed after stitching, these products are painted or
sprayed onto the fabric. Several light applications of spray stabilizer are
preferable to one heavy application.
Knit Fusible Interfacing: A very lightweight, flexible interfacing some-
times used as a stabilizer, it gives permanent support (as an underlining)
to a fabric. Perfect for plackets, garment edges, under buttonholes, and
anywhere extra body and stability are needed. Can also be used to
stabilize decorative stitch work. Available in white, cream, black, and
gray; sometimes available in additional colors.
Woven Fusible Interfacing: This interfacing is sometimes used as a
stabilizer and is generally cut on the bias to provide better drape. Gives
a firmer hand or finish than knit or non-woven inter-facings. Used for
lapels, facings, and anywhere a great deal of extra body and stability
are needed.
Sewing and Craft Sprays
HRFive Temporary Adhesive Spray: It's water-soluble, so it washes
out completely. Great for basting or holding two layers of fabric and/or
batting together. Can be used as a repositionable spray, allowing items
to stay sticky but be repositioned on other surfaces. This water-soluble
adhesive washes out completely. Works well for securing "hard-to-hoop"
items such as collars and cuffs to hooped stabilizer for embroidering.
Also works on paper, and be used as a no-show adhesive on vellum.
606 Fusible Spray: 606 is used to make any fabric or stabilizer fusible.
Apply to the wrong side of the fabric to be fused, using several light
coats rather than one heavy coating. The more coats used, the stronger
the bond will be. Fuse as directed on product label.
Fabric Shield: Used to protect fabrics from dust, dirt, grease, and oil,
this spray is water repellent and can be laundered and dry-cleaned.
HRZero Adhesive Remover Spray: For removing adhesives, such as
quilt sprays and other spray adhesives, as well as labels and tapes, from
various surfaces. Use on work surface areas, hoops, needles, frames,
quilting frames, stencils, table tops, etc. For use on plastic, metal, wood,
glass, stone, and ceramic surfaces. Not intended for fabric surfaces.
