Gütermann C Ne 50 Cotton Sewing Thread - 100 m - No. 2238

A true ally of flesh shades and muted pinks, this Gütermann cotton sewing thread n° 2238 is dressed in a soft, luminous peachy pink with little contrast. It fades into the seam on a wide range of light fabrics.

Technical details

The coil contains100 m(i.e. 110 yards) ofMercerized cotton. This treatment of the cotton gives a more even surface and a shinier appearance, with a nice color fixation. The sizeNe 50corresponds to a fine thread, perfect for careful work on light to medium fabrics. Each spool is sold by the piece.

Directions for use

• For a light-skinned seam or a pink lining, check the shade in natural light: warm lighting accentuates the peach.
• On a thin fabric, use a new and fine needle: a blunt point pulls on the weft and puckers the seam.
• To attach a button, leave a small tail between the button and the fabric by slipping a match or needle under the stitches: this makes the buttonhole easier.

Pair it with an ecru cotton crepe or a powder pink bias tape. A sharp pair of sewing scissors will ensure clean cuts.
