Gütermann Extra Strong Sewing Thread M 782 - 100 m - Red Brown - No. 423

A deep brown with plum shades: the extra-strong Gütermann yarn reddish brown no. 423 has character. It goes just as well with winter woollens as it does with burgundy or taupe-tinted fabrics.

Technical characteristics

Classic reel M 782 containing100 m(110 yds) ofpolyester, coloursreddish brown no. 423. The "extra-strong" thread is more resistant to traction than the universal thread: it is suitable for seams that work, such as pockets, coat linings or bags. Its dark shade, neither frankly brown nor purplish, gives depth to the assemblies.

Use cases

• On a thick wool or woollen sheet, lengthen the stitch length to 3 mm to prevent the fabric from gathering.
• Sew the buttonholes of a coat twice in the most stressed areas before opening them.
• On a striped or checked fabric, choose the dominant color of the pattern rather than the lightest.
• Keep a thread of a close shade for the lining: visible points on the inside of the garment remain harmonious.

Pair it with woollen or woollen cloth and coat shank buttons. A sharp dressmaker's scissor will make the cuts sharper.
