150m Normandy green metallic thread made in France

These threads are of excellent quality because they are made in France in a workshop that particularly cares about the quality of its items. In fact, the metallic threads offered on the Lyon-based online haberdashery MyMercerie are made with 59% nylon and 41% lurex. The spools unwind 150m of thread in a snap spool.

12 colors are available for our and your greatest pleasure. For example, classics like black , blue  and red are available. Modern ones like gold and silver are also online. The other colors are also for example fuchsia pink , grass green , a tropical blue  which wants to make us go on vacation...

But the extra touch is their manufacture with lurex which gives this metallic look seen nowhere else. Your cousettes will take on a completely different look with this touch of finesse in the seams. 

Sew metallic thread made in France

At first glance, it may seem difficult to sew but with the right material and softness everything will be fine. We advise you to choose the right needle; that is to say a "metallic needle" notably at Schmetz. Their wider eye prevents the thread from being cut by rubbing too much on the needle. It will also be necessary to pay attention to the bobbin thread which we recommend in ultra fine polyester or silk. The tension will need to be reduced and take your time. This will prevent the thread from breaking and the stitches will be regular.
