  1. Explore the Fundamentals of the Sewing Machine Thread Sewing machine thread plays a pivotal role in various sewing projects, from clothing and shoes to bags and accessories. Its composition and manufacturing process are complex, with each thread type offering unique benefits. Understanding the basics of sewing machine thread is crucial for businesses to choose the right materials for creating durable and high-quality sewn products. Coats offers a diverse range of sewing machine threads for different applications. For instance, their Astra Rugged is specifically designed for the bleach wash process in denim manufacturing. This bleach-fast staple-spun polyester thread ensures consistent sewing performance, particularly for economy denim. Selecting the right thread for your project While all-purpose sewing machine threads like Coats Astra are available, it's important to consider the fabric's properties when choosing a thread. For 100% cotton fabrics, a 100% cotton thread, such as Coats Admiral, is suitable. This high- quality Pima long-staple mercerised cotton thread is ideal for absorbing dyes post-sewing due to its mercerisation process. Certain sewing machine threads are tailored for more demanding tasks. For instance, Coats Brio is an excellent choice for sewing decorative seams on heavy fabrics. This braided lubricated polyester sewing machine thread—made from high-tenacity, pre-stabilized, continuous filament polyester—excels in high-speed decorative sewing on leather goods and footwear. For a lustrous decorative effect, Coats Sylko Metallic is recommended, especially for cover seams and top spreader applications for metallic effects. Understanding spool information

  2. It's also crucial to understand the spool's labelling. Most manufacturers indicate the fibre content, weight, number of plies, and colour number on the end of the spool for easy identification. The last number typically represents two numbers, with a higher first number indicating a finer thread. The importance of brand selection The brand of sewing machine thread is significant. Renowned companies like Coats have a history of innovation and delivering high-quality, reliable threads suitable for various machines. Their reputation makes their products a trustworthy choice for any sewing need. Selecting the right sewing machine thread is essential for achieving the desired outcome in any sewing project. With a wide range of options available, understanding the properties and applications of different threads, as well as the importance of brand and spool information, can guide businesses and hobbyists in making informed choices. Coats—a leader in the field—provides an extensive selection of sewing machine threads, ensuring quality and reliability for a variety of sewing applications.
