Technical details

Spool100 m (110 yds)inpolyester, referenceM 782, Colour No. 169. The term "extra-strong" indicates a thicker thread than the universal thread, designed to resist when the seam pulls. Light beige blends into cream, sand, linen and ivory tones, and is suitable for seams that need to hold without being seen: curtains, bags, aprons, covers.

Use cases

• To install a loop or a canvas handle, stitch a square reinforced with a cross: the effort is distributed over the entire seam.
• On linen, use a 3 mm stitch: a stitch that is too short perforates the fabric and may weaken it.
• For a hand hem on thick canvas, use the single thread and keep regular stitches, without pulling.

Pair it with an ecru cotton bias and natural webbing. For a clean finish, add a light interfacing on the linen.
