OESD has spent more than four decades making the products that stand behind the stitch. Their stabilizers are engineered fabric by fabric and technique by technique — PolyMesh and heavyweight cutaways for knits and stretch, light through heavy tearaways for stable wovens, AquaMesh and Heat2Go toppings for terry, fleece, and freestanding work. Match the stabilizer to the fabric and puckering, tunneling, and distorted designs largely stop being a problem. If you're still guessing, the OESD Stabilizer Guide includes physical samples of the whole line for under ten dollars.

We stock the sizes working embroiderers actually go through: 10, 15, and 20 inch rolls in 5 and 10 yard cuts, 100 and 150 yard commercial rolls, and precut sheet packs of 200 for shops running volume. Alongside the stabilizers you'll find the rest of the OESD line — embroidery blanks like aprons, pillow covers, and garden flags, plus hooping mats, hole punch and scoring tools, Pixie Lights, spool storage, and wash-away and tear-away tapes.
