Fred,
Excuse my use of "poly mesh" --- I always get it wrong... I am using the
Floriani No Show Mesh Fusible. It is stabilizing the fabric quite well.
The problem is/was that after sewing awhile (<6000 stitch design, 15 cm
hoop) the fabric and stabilizer were loose/not taut in the hoop, but the
hoop itself was tight.
Is it true that the 15" fusible mesh will no longer be made?

There are many things out there called polymesh -
Polymesh is a misnomer - most of them are really nylon.
As a very general rule
One layer of a 1.5 oz fusible "no show" embossed nylon mesh should hold
approx 6-8,000 stitches of a medium density stitch count.
(Some out there like "soft and sheer" or "weblon" are not as stable and are
only 1.3 ozs.)
If you need to do more stitches - 2 layers cross patterned will give you a
very stable field into which you could put 20-25,000 stitches.
Please feel free to e-mail me off list if you want samples
Sincerely
Fred
