stitchlady 3 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Does anyone have any suggestions as to why my thread looks loopy. I'm embroidering in-the-hoop candy cane holders and when I put the back on, the thread looks like it has loops in it. Am I using the wrong stabilizer? I'm using fleece for both sides of the candy cane and iron on stabilizer. Quote Link to comment https://forum.embroideres.com/forums/topic/225-thread-looping/
olive 2 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I made candy cane holders, used no show mesh which is a leave-in kind of stabilizer. I know to use tearaway as a suggestion but also try a permanent stabilizer. Quote Link to comment https://forum.embroideres.com/forums/topic/225-thread-looping/#findComment-1149

AlexAbramov 10 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 There are many brands - and it must be available at any sewing store which carries all kinds of embroidery machines or embroidery designs and/or fabrics.

sherry 6 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Floriani brand is a good one that even has it as an iron-on type which is very stable. so i think this is a good choice for you as well. Quote Link to comment https://forum.embroideres.com/forums/topic/225-thread-looping/#findComment-1152
nessa12 4 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 There are many others too - I'm just familiar with Floriani brand as that is what my dealer carries. Quote Link to comment https://forum.embroideres.com/forums/topic/225-thread-looping/#findComment-1153
