try the costlier variety of lining cloth ... 2x1 (two by one) ... almost 50/- or more per meter ... and if still having a prob .. try the zigzag stitch around the edges ... hope this helps

I hope you are asking for back cloth for embroidering to give more strength. if yes. there is a special paper in which one side will be coated with wax you have to place the wax part on the back side of the cloth and iron the wax will melt and stick with the cloth after embroidering the paper can be peal able. normally I use 50 gsm paper. If you ask the stationary shop who is selling tailoring accessory shop you can get it.

good luck

lali what you have to do is when attaching the patch to the cloth leave atleast 1/4 inch margin around the patch and cut.give slit cut reverse v shape cut. you can use thin sponge sheet at the back side of the patch, in running stich or machine stich you attach the patch and do the decorative stiches of your choice.
