Choosing The Right Sewing Thread

Sewing is something that everyone is familiar with. Its products surround us - literally, in the case of the clothes we wear. Most everyone is able to sew at least a few stitches and nearly every adult is capable of sewing on a button by hand or stitching up a straight seam by machine. Those who are experienced and knowledgeable in the craft are aware that the simplest sewing project can become difficult and even be ruined simply by choosing the wrong items to work with. Even beginners shop long and hard to find exactly the right fabric, of course. That' s the part of the project that everyone will see. And when faced with the dizzying array of needles that are available, most newbies will know enough to ask for help in making a choice. But thread? You match the color and buy enough and that' s it, right? No, of course not. The selection of the right sewing thread can make a big difference to a project.

Choices

First of all, if you are using a pattern, check to see if there are any recommendations for a specific type of sewing thread. If you are using stretchy fabrics, you will need to know what kind of thread has the right  give. If you are using heavy fabrics, you will need heavier thread. Is the thread washable? Here is some help.

The general type of thread is about a size 50 weight. This will do for most jobs and it' s a good idea to keep some on hand for emergency repairs. As the number goes higher, the thread becomes finer.

After selecting your fabric, try to match the color of the sewing thread. For patterned fabric, choose a color close to the dominant color. If you can' t find and exact match, you can choose a sewing thread that' s a shade or two darker. Lighter shades will show up more than darker ones. If you want a sewing thread that will not stretch, choose cotton. For a slightly stretchier selection, polyester sewing threads is the right choice and if you need something really stretchy, say for an elastic waistband, there are elastic threads available. Some all purpose sewing thread is cotton-wrapped polyester making it appropriate for most kinds of fabric.

Home Care For The Monsoon
Given that the monsoon season lasts for a few months in India, there are many aspects that need to be looked into while considering home care .....
Special projects may require special types of sewing thread. Delicate fabrics like those used for lingerie need fine cotton (no stretch) or silk (some  give ). Heavy or stiff fabric used in upholstery or in clothing like dungarees will require heavy duty sewing thread and, perhaps a special needle. Decorative threads like metallic or embroidery thread may not be suitable for use in a machine. Check the label. Simple planning at the beginning of a project will help ensure that all materials will work together beautifully.
