Aside from fabric and needle, thread is the other absolute necessary component for sewing. lol But is there thread that’s better than others?
Join Jennifer in this episode to find out her favorite threads to use for general sewing by machine and hand. Take notes for tips on colors, conditioners, and available quality products.
Show Notes and Mentions–Coats & Clark thread is one of my go-to as well as Gutermann threads.
-For using silk thread, YLI thread and Gutermann are recommended. Linen thread can be found at Burnley & Trowbridge.
-To practice your hand sewing with various threads, get started with my Hand Stitches for 18th Century Sewing Class.
