DMC TOUS TEXTILES 1BOB 120M

To assemble your fabrics with confidence, the DMC Tous Textiles 1022B sewing thread in Yellow 4526 is your essential ally. This 120 meter spool in 100% polyester can be worked by machine or by hand, offering remarkable strength and stitch regularity on all types of materials, from light cotton to thicker canvases.

A 100% polyester thread made in France, which combines tenacity and flexibility to avoid breakage when sewing. The Yellow 4526 color shines on neutral canvases – white, beige, gray – and brings a touch of cheerfulness to colorful creations. 120 meters of thread offer plenty of autonomy for assembling several parts or regular touch-ups.

The spool unwinds regularly, without knots or accidental breaks, and the thread slides smoothly through the eye of the needle. A balanced machine tension — neither too tight nor too loose — is sufficient to obtain regular and discreet stitches.

• Thread a fine needle (size 70 or 80) for delicate fabrics, and a more robust needle (90 to 100) for dense fabrics or leathers.
• Reduce the machine tension if the thread pulls the fabric upwards, or increase it slightly if the bobbin stitches appear on the surface.
• Keep the thread dry, away from direct light, to preserve its elasticity and its bright yellow shine.
• Combine this bright yellow with matching threads for an invisible seam, or use it in contrast with warm colors — terracotta, rust, gold — for an assertive visible detail.
• Test the thread on a scrap of fabric before starting a project, to check that the color matches and that the tension is correctly adjusted.

Complete your sewing box with matching needles — Bohin or Prym depending on your preference — and an ergonomic thread cutter for an efficient and pleasant sewing workshop. Polyester sewing thread also goes well with specialized fabrics: do not hesitate to use it to assemble jersey, light stretch or even felt without fear of breakage.
