DMC TOUS TEXTILES 1BOB 120M

To assemble your fabrics with confidence, the DMC Tous Textiles 1022B sewing thread in blue 4802 offers uncompromising strength and regularity. This 120 m spool in 100% polyester can be worked with a sewing machine or by hand, on cottons, linens, synthetics and blends. Made in France, this yarn benefits from recognized French know-how in textile yarns.

Technical characteristics: Composition 100% high tenacity polyester, 120 m spool, blue color 4802 stable to light and washing. The fineness of the thread allows clean and regular seams without creating excess thickness. Compatible with all standard machine needles and adaptable to all manual sewing projectiles.

The blue color 4802 is a deep, slightly structured blue that goes well with light fabrics such as faded denim and navy blues. Ideal for visible assemblies where the color must be forgotten or, on the contrary, play a contrasting role on cream or ivory fabrics.

• Adjust the tension of your machine with a needle adapted to the weight of the fabric: an 80 needle for fine fabrics, 90 or 100 for medium ones, 110 or 120 for thick ones.
• Take needles of 40 to 50 cm to prevent the thread from fraying or linting at the end of manual sewing.
• Test the color on a scrap of your fabric in natural light before sewing the complete piece: polyester can sometimes display a slightly different shade from one material to another.
• For an invisible finish, thread the needle with a thread matching the fabric, even if you sew with this blue 4802: the warp and weft will hide the junction points.
• Store away from direct light in your sewing box: polyester retains its color for a long time, but prolonged exposure to UV rays can alter it slightly.

Pair this sewing thread with Bohin or Prym brand machine needles for optimal compatibility, and complete your equipment with matching embroidery thread if you plan on hand finishing or ornamental details in cross stitch or backstitch.
