Directions for use

• For jeans-style topstitching, draw a first line 3 mm from the edge and a second at 6 mm: the double pass gives a clean effect.
• Iron the open seams before topstitching: topstitching falls best on a flat fabric.
• Use this grey-blue to sew the inside pockets and linings of your dark pieces: the stitching remains discreet.

Combine it with a thick cotton canvas and needles for dense fabrics. A grey or navy blue twill braid will finish your projects nicely.
