Important Facts About Thread and Needles
With the right combination of thread and needle optimum sewing results are
achieved.
Thread
The thread is chosen according to use. For a
perfect sewing result, thread and fabric quality
play an important role. It is recommended to
use quality brands.
Cotton Thread
• cotton thread has the advantage of a
natural fiber and therefore is especially
suitable for sewing cotton fabrics
• if cotton thread is mercerized it will have a
slight sheen
Polyester Thread
• polyester thread is suitable for practically all
sewing needs
• it has a high tensile strength and is
particularly colorfast
• polyester thread is more flexible and is
recommended where a strong and elastic
seam is required
Needle, Thread and Fabric
