Directions for use

• Use it only as a top thread and keep a classic bobbin thread to keep the seam supple.
• Sew at low speed: a thin thread slips quickly and can break if pulled too hard.
• Perform a tension test on a scrap before sewing the work.
• For an appliqué, stitch in a narrow zigzag stitch around the shape so that the contour remains discreet.

It complements printed fabrics, a felt appliqué or a voile hem. A classic bobbin sewing thread is still essential.
