21K views · 1.9K reactions | The Secret to Perfect Stitches? Choosing the Right Thread! 🧵 Not all threads are created equal! Using the right type can make your sewing projects smoother, stronger, and more polished. Here’s a detailed breakdown to help you match your thread to your fabric: Cotton Thread: Ideal for natural fabrics like cotton, linen, and blends. It’s breathable and blends well, but it doesn’t stretch. Perfect for quilting, lightweight garments, and when you want a matte finish. Be cautious with knit fabrics since cotton thread can snap under tension. Polyester Thread: The all-rounder in your sewing kit! Polyester thread is versatile, strong, and slightly stretchy, making it perfect for most projects, including woven and knit fabrics. It’s also resistant to shrinking and fading, so it holds up well in the wash. This is your best friend for general-purpose sewing. Nylon Thread: Heavy-duty and durable, nylon thread is perfect for tough materials like leather, canvas, and upholstery. It’s very strong and flexible, making it ideal for projects that require long-lasting seams. However, it’s not suitable for fabrics that need to breathe, as it’s synthetic and less absorbent. Silk Thread: Luxurious and smooth, silk thread is often used for delicate hand-stitching and high-end fabrics. It glides effortlessly through the material, making it ideal for lightweight fabrics like silk, satin, and tulle. Its natural sheen gives a beautiful finish, perfect for hems, lingerie, or embellishments. Elastic Thread: Need some stretch? Elastic thread is designed to stretch and bounce back, making it perfect for shirring, smocking, and sewing stretch seams in activewear or swimwear. Make sure to wind it by hand on your bobbin for better control and results. Choosing the right thread can make all the difference between a project that looks polished and one that falls apart. Always consider your fabric, the purpose of the garment, and the look you want to achieve. What’s your go-to thread for your projects? Have a favorite?

5.3K views · 1.6K reactions | Stitch length is measured in millimetres and is usually shown on your machine as a number. You can adjust the number to adjust your stitch length. 1.5mm - 2mm is perfect for very light fabrics such as chiffon, voile and silk. Using a shorter stitch length helps prevent puckering. 2.5mm - 3mm is your go-to length for most mid-weight fabrics. 3.5mm is a great topstitching length. 4mm is for basting. The longer stitch length makes it easier to remove the stitches when no longer needed. Remember, these are guidelines, not laws! They are a great place to start but the sewing police are not going to turn up if you feel your topstitching would look better at 3mm or you want to sew your seams using 2mm. You’re the boss!
