DMC TOUS TEXTILES 1BOB 120M

To reliably assemble light or thick fabrics, the DMC Tous Textiles 1022B sewing thread in Pink 4351 color offers remarkable strength. This 120 m thread in 100% polyester is suitable for both hand and machine sewing, without fear of repeated washing or temperature variations.

Spun and dyed in France, this yarn benefits from recognized French textile know-how. Its resistance to breakage and its excellent color fastness make it a valuable ally for all everyday sewing projects. Polyester guarantees low pilling and good glide in the most delicate as well as the most structured fabrics. The 120 m spool largely covers a complete garment or several accessories.

The color Rose 4351 displays a soft coral, slightly peachy shade, which harmonizes equally well with neutral tones and with printed fabrics. This warm pink goes particularly well with light cottons, lawns and fine canvases.

• Thread at a needle length of 60 cm to avoid the formation of knots and excessive friction against the needle.
• Use a fine needle suitable for the fabric: fine needle (70) for muslins and cambric, standard needle (80) for ordinary cottons, sturdy needle (90) for thick ones like denim.
• Block the thread under the buttonhole of the needle during the first stitch by hand to prevent the knot from escaping.
• Test the tension on a scrap before sewing a garment: a thread that is too tight pulls the fabric, a thread that is too loose creates loops visible on the reverse side.
• Prefer a chain stitch (classic back stitch) to finishes to reinforce seams subject to tension: the bottom of a bag or the neckline of a blouse.

Combine this Rose 4351 thread with embroidery thread in a deeper pink for hand stitching with contrast, or combine it with off-white thread for invisible topstitching. On a small item like a pencil case or a pouch, it is enough to ensure all the seams with regular tension and a good final hold.
