In general, fine threads and needles are used for sewing thin fabrics, and
thicker threads and needles are 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 BALL POINT
needle. The blue tipped needle effectively prevents skipped stitches.
When sewing very fine fabrics,sew over a piece of paper to prevent fabric
distortion.
