Sulky Of America Cut Away Tender Touch Iron-On Backing White, 20" by 36", Plum Dandy (664-01)

Q: Can I use this on a 100% polyester leotard? There is an embroidery design on my daughter's ballet leotard and it's driving her skin nuts.

The description clearly states THAT IT ADHERES TO ONLY100% cotton, 100%polyester and cotton poly blends. So I’m here 8 months to late to tell you, yes. You can.

Q: Does this protect embroidery stitches from coming loose by covering them?

Yes, this would protect the back side of the stitches. It's main purpose, I believe, is to cover them so that when wearing the garment there is no irritation from the design.

Q: Would this be good for a baby onesie?

Yes. It’s vey soft and would work really well for baby clothes that are rough on the inside.

Q: Would this product work on a 100 % cotton Dad/Ball cap where the back of the embroidery is very rough and is hurting my sons forehead?

If it’s running against his head, then yes. If it is pushing into his head, I would add a thing layer of fleece between embroidery backing and tender touch. I would use fusible fleece and spot to inside of cap. Then cut the tender touch slightly larger so it would be fused to the cap all the way around the fleece. Remember to round all corners on both fleece and tender touch.

So easy to apply and gets rid of the scratchy feel for sensory kids/adults.

Works so far

Using this to cover up an irritating seam. Easy to apply, but I'm not sure it will last through several washings.

Perfectly soft.

Worked great for the inside of a hand embroidered shirt. I pressed it on using a heat press at 270. It adhered great, but I haven't washed to see how it holds up.

Perfect!

This is easy to apply and definitely covers embroidery stitching for softness. It was easy to trace the pattern from the back and cut out. Just make sure you have the rough ( fusible) side down. I will see how well it stands up to washing and drying since it was applied to two children’s shirts, one teen and one adult.

Iron - on Backing Review

This product did exactly what it is supposed to do. It held the embroidery after ironed on and has survived a hand full of washes so far with no signs of peeling. The instructions are clear, however figuring out the right side to iron on took a couple tries. If you do not iron on the correct side the product will stick to the iron itself.

Tender Touch to the rescue

The perfect solution to iron onto the back of embroidered items so that there is a smooth backing, not to irritate anyone's skin. Plus, the stitches will stay in place now!

Works great!

It sticks perfectly! I didn't have any issues with determining the sticky side. The softer side is the outer side. The rough side is the one that would stick to fabric.
