A cut stabilizer keeps the leather together during and after the machine embroidery procedure. Then the leather is smoothened onto the stabilizer’s side with an even and smooth surface. At the time of designing, they use the hooping for the design’s different elements to line up in the correct location. Hooping prevents the leather from shifting with the hoop moving while embroidering.


Using the Hoop

A hoop leaves a long-lasting imprint on the leather and even scuffs it. So, before attaching the top hoop, they place muslin strips on the top of the leather for preventing and making permanent markings on the leather.
