Embroidery Backings And Toppings
Embroidery Backing is used to give the garment stability as you are applying your embroidery. Backing is also known as stabilizer. Using the proper backing prevents puckering around the embroidery. Most fabrics will stretch as they are being hooped and it is very important to avoid stretching them even a small amount. If it is stretched while you are hooping it, it will create puckers around the finished embroidery. Using the correct backing or stabilizer for the garment is extremely important for high quality finished products.
