American Embroidery Supply offers Dissolve ‘N’ Tear, a water-soluble tearaway that is designed for open embroidery on light cottons and linens. When the embroidery is finished, the excess is easily torn away from the stitches.Because it is constructed of half water soluble and half nonwater soluble materials, when washed, half the stabilizer dissolves leaving nonsoluble fibers under the stitching. This gives the embroidery the support it needs to keep the design looking sharp and crisp throughout the life of the garment. The dissolved fibers are biodegradable and will not hurt the environment.

Dissolve ‘N’ Tear is made using a wet-laid nonwoven process that ensures it is nondirectional and dense for maximum support. This type of stabilizer also makes it easier to achieve the tambourine-skin tension level that is ideal for perfect registration and fine details. Custom cutting is available.

All online orders are shipped the same or next business day. Detailed instructions on how to use many specialty stabilizers are available on the web site.  MORE INFO
