Tender Touch goes onto the reverse of the design after stitching. The soft knitted material covers the scratchy stitches without changing how the fabric drapes. At 53 g/m² it barely adds any bulk.

About this range
Tender Touch ist das aufbügelbare Abdeckvlies von Sulky mit 53 g/m². Es kommt auf die Rückseite einer fertigen Stickerei und deckt die kratzigen Stiche ab, damit die Haut sie nicht spürt. Weil es ein weiches Maschengewebe ist, bleibt der Fall des Stoffs erhalten. Es gibt es in Weiß und Schwarz.
Sewing tips
- Nach dem Sticken auf die Rückseite bügeln, nicht vorher.
- Mit mäßiger Hitze und ohne Dampf arbeiten, dann hält die Beschichtung dauerhaft.
- Für Baby- und Kinderkleidung, Dessous und Sportbekleidung besonders sinnvoll.
- Auch als Fixiereinlage im Bekleidungsbereich verwendbar.
- Die Farbe passend zum Stoff wählen — auf hellen Stoffen scheint dunkles Vlies durch.
The reverse of an embroidery carries colour changes, jump stitches and knots. On a cushion nobody notices, in a t-shirt they do: that surface rubs against the skin, and on children's clothing it quickly becomes the reason a garment stays in the drawer.
Tender Touch lays a soft layer over it. Because it is a knitted material rather than a firm film, the fabric stays mobile and drapes as before. Iron it on after stitching, with moderate heat and no steam.
The order matters: stitch first, cover afterwards. Fusing it beforehand puts it under the needle as an extra layer — it then works as support, but no longer covers anything.
Frequently asked questions
When do I iron it on?
After stitching, never before. It is meant to cover the finished reverse; used as a backing while stitching it would add support but miss exactly the job it was made for.
Which iron setting should I use?
Moderate heat and no steam. Too hot and the coating melts through, too damp and it lifts in the first wash. A pressing cloth in between protects both fabric and soleplate.
Does it survive washing?
Yes, when fused properly. If a corner lifts after a wash, the heat was usually too low or the time too short — simply press the spot again.
