How to use it

• For a coat button, leave a small rod of thread between the button and the fabric, then wrap the thread around it: it keeps the place of the buttoned thickness.
• In topstitching, pull the threads inside out and tie them rather than making a back stitch, which forms a visible bump on the right side.
• On a light fabric, mahogany draws a clean line: reserve it for decorative stitching on pockets or belts.

Pair it with coat buttons and a lining to finish a winter jacket. A heavy-gauge needle will complete the set.
