Technical characteristics

ThisSuper strong cord wireis inpolyesterand presents itself in30 m reel(33 yards). The term "cord" refers to a twisted thread, thicker and rounder than a standard sewing thread. Its twisted strands draw a raised stitch and withstand pulls better. TheSunflower Yellowis bright and frank, close to a golden yellow.

Directions for use

• To topstitch jeans, place the cord as a top thread and keep a classic bobbin sewing thread.
• Lengthen the stitch length: a longer stitch lets the thick yarn breathe and accentuates the decorative effect.
• First test on a scrap of fabric at the same thickness as your work to adjust the tension.
• On a plain fabric, a single line of yellow topstitching is enough to highlight a pocket or collar.

To test your stitches, bring jeans needles and a few scraps of thick cotton canvas. Metal or wooden buttons go well with this shade.
