Fabric, thread and stabilizer tips

For cotton, linen, canvas and medium-weight woven fabrics, use tear-away or cut-away stabilizer depending on fabric weight and stitch density. A simple starting formula is: stabilizer weight is about fabric weight divided by 3. For example, 150 g/m² fabric usually starts around 50 g/m² stabilizer; 6 oz/yd² fabric starts around 2 oz/yd² stabilizer.

For towels or textured fabrics, use water-soluble topping on top. It helps keep geranium petals, leaves and small details from sinking into the fabric texture.

Geraniums often work well in red, pink, coral, burgundy, white and green thread shades. If you stitch the design on dark, bright or patterned fabric, test the thread colors first so the petals and leaves stay visible.
