Sew better with the right thread #111
Episode description
Sewing thread seems simple, until you realise that there is a thread jungle out there, and that choosing the right thread can affect everything from seam durability and stretch to stitch quality and how smoothly your machine sews.
In this episode, Malena and Johanna are diving deep into the world of sewing threads. From regular all-purpose thread to overlock cones, stretch thread and heavy topstitching thread, this episode covers what different threads actually do, when to use them and why thread choice can completely change the outcome of a sewing project.
Plus: why cheap thread has its place, but not on a sewing machine. And of course, Johanna messes up the thread weight systems, but hopefully she manages to save her face in the end!
