Cutaway Backings / Stabilizers

Cutaway Backings / Stabilizers
A cutaway backing or stabilizer provides permanent support to embroidery designs by staying on the garment after stitching and being trimmed around the embroidered area, leaving a stable foundation behind the stitches. Our cutaways include light, middleweight, and heavyweight backings; No Show backings for lightweight and knit fabrics; PolyPro Performance backings for microfiber and moisture-wicking materials; Stretchy Knit backings for ultra-stretchy fabrics; and Jumbo Cuts for the largest hoops.
