That could be the next sewing tip - only use rayon thread for embroidery, nothing else! Rayon is GREAT for embroidery, but horrible for anything else. I buy mostly Madiera for embroidery, rayon, 40 weight. I think it works so well for embroidery because each stitch is gone over so many times - never just once. I use a lot of Gutermann for my regular sewing, too. I find it holds up great. <BR/><BR/>Great tip!Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436720646561133434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-87240524582410185152008-06-09T09:19:00.000-06:002008-06-09T09:19:00.000-06:00That so interesting. I never did notice the Sulky ...That so interesting. I never did notice the Sulky thread in Joann's so I don't have any, but I'll be sure to stick witht he Gutermann. I was really close to starting a sewing project while my mom is visiting. But we decided to knit instead. I will hemming more pants though. I'm not sure why, but it seems that all the pants nowadays are way too long. I'm too short for the regular seam length and too tall for the petite seam length. It's really annoying.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988057035703045037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-3051172723181183162008-06-09T08:36:00.000-06:002008-06-09T08:36:00.000-06:00Katherine's dress is holding up perfectly and she ...Katherine's dress is holding up perfectly and she still wears it ALL THE TIME. :-)Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09338179192033070099noreply@blogger.com
