NOTE:
In general, fine threads and needles are used for sewing thin fabrics, and thicker threads and needles and used for sewing heavy
fabrics.
Always test thread and needle size on a small piece of fabric which will be used for actual sewing.
Use the same thread for needle and bobbin.
When sewing stretch, very fine fabrics and synthetics, use a blue tipped needle. The blue tipped needle effectively prevents
skipped stitches.
