NOTE:
.
In
general,
fine threads and needles
are
used for
sewing thin tabrics, and thicker threads
and needles
are
used for sewing heavy fabrics.
Always test thread
and
needle
size on a small
piece
ol fabric which will
be used for actual sewing.
*
Use
the
same
thread for needle
and bobbin.
*
When
sewing stretch, very fine fabrics and synthetics, use
a blue
tipped
needle.
The blue lipped needle effectively
prevents
skipped
stitches.
