Hi everyone!

I am trying to hand embrodier a name on a sweatshirt .... I purchased some tear away stabilizer and traced the font/name onto it ... pinned it on the front of the sweatshirt and started my chain stitching of the name .... am I going to be able to completely tear away the stabilizer? Now that I started this... I'm wondering if I try to tear away ... if it will damage the stitches ... and will I be able to completely remove it from the garment .... help!
