I am working on my daughter's prom dress. There is an outer layer of organza that is very slippery. Is there a trick to keep it from sliding all over the sewing machine when stitching? On the list, I recall someone mentioning a few years ago, a tear away stabilizer. Can someone point me to a webpage that tells how to use this. All I have found are embroidery webpages. I have to finish the dress tonight. So I have to find a stabilizer at Hancock Fabrics, Joann's, or Michael's.

BTW, I can't use the iron-on stabilizer because the organza, because the organza has a plastic type glitter on it. The glitter melt when an iron touches it.>>

In the notions section of JoAnn's or Hancock Fabrics, look in the embroidery stabilizer section. I buy non-iron-on tear-away stabilizer there all the time. It pins into place.

At JAF, the brand is Sulky.
