12.4 Important Embroidery information
Upper thread
A good quality thread (brand manufacturer) is essential for embroidery so that the embroidery is not affected
negatively because of poor thread or thread breakage.
Embroidery is particularly effective if you use 40wt glossy rayon or polyester embroidery threads as upper
threads. They are available in a wide range of colors for beautiful embroidery.
• Glossy polyester with a brilliant sheen is a hard wearing, colorfast thread and has a high tensile strength
which is suitable for all types of embroidery.
• Rayon is a soft viscose fiber with a brilliant sheen and suitable for fine, delicate embroidery, or items that
will not receive excessive wear and tear.
• Metallic thread is a light to medium-weight thread suitable for special effects in embroidery.
• When working with metallic threads, the automatic bobbin thread cutter should be deactivated. The
other thread cutters shouldn't be used either because the knives are likely to wear off very quickly.
