Tear-away stabilizers are temporary, so once the excess is removed after embroidering, the fabric itself must be able to support the design on its own. Tear-away stabilizers are usually recommended for woven fabrics. Cut-away stabilizers are permanent, and therefore a better choice for supporting embroidery on unstable fabrics, to
