Our advice

• For a hand hem on linen, stitch with regular 3 mm stitches, barely resuming the weft: the right side remains clean.
• If you're not sure between two fabrics in similar shades, try this beige: it's one of the most versatile neutrals.
• On an optical white fabric, first test on a scrap: a beige can appear darker once stitched.
• For a patchwork of light tones, use the same thread in all the seams to unify the whole.

It is combined with mother-of-pearl or coconut buttons and an ecru cotton bias for natural finishes.
