Features

This coil of30 mcontains apolyester yarnCord-type: it is larger and more strongly twisted than a standard sewing thread. The polyester gives it good tensile strength, useful for working seams. This corded thread for topstitching is suitable for buttonholes as well as decorative topstitching. Its colour,Colour No. 230, is easy to find in the Gütermann range.

Directions for use

• To sew a foot button, wrap the thread under the button to form a rod: the fabric can then be buttoned without pulling.
• Use an elongated eye needle, adapted to the thickness of the cord, to prevent it from fraying in the process.
• On leather, space your stitches well: stitches that are too tight perforate the material like a cutting line.
• Choose a reasonable length of thread, as a cord that is too long will twist and knot.

Pair it with wooden or horn buttons for a coat, and an elongated eye needle for comfortable work.
