Technical details

This coil of100 mcontainsMercerized cotton: the yarn has been treated to give it a smooth feel and a slight luster, for a more polished finish than raw cotton. TitrationNe 50corresponds to a medium fineness (the greater the number, the finer the thread). It is suitable for cottons, light fabrics and poplins. Its blue shade remains visible without being garish, ideal for decorative topstitching.

How to use it

• On jeans, stitch the topstitching with this blue or a slightly lighter shade than the fabric: too much of a gap underlines each stitch irregularity.
• Extend the stitch length to 3 mm for visible topstitching, it gains in relief.
• Before attaching a patch pocket, iron the flaps: a well-marked edge is straighter.
• Keep a scrap of your fabric to adjust the tension before starting the work.

Pair it with a chambray or faded blue cotton canvas, with snaps for an apron. A jeans needle will help you get through the extra thicknesses.
