FAQs

What types of fabrics can I use this thread on?

Gutermann Sew All Thread is designed for all types of fabrics, from lightweight silks to heavier denims and upholstery materials.

Is this thread suitable for both hand sewing and machine sewing?

Yes, this thread is engineered for optimal performance in both hand sewing and all types of sewing machines.

What does '50% seam resistance reserve' mean?

It means the seam strength is significantly higher than the breaking strength of the fabric, providing a robust and secure seam that is unlikely to fail under normal stress.

Why do larger reels have fewer color options?

Larger reels are designed for high-volume use where economy is key. The most popular and versatile colors are typically offered in these larger sizes, while the full spectrum is available on smaller, project-specific reels.

How should I store my thread to ensure longevity?

Store the thread in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent degradation of the fibers and maintain color vibrancy.

What needle size is recommended for this thread?

A needle size between 70 and 90 is generally recommended for optimal performance with Gutermann Sew All Thread.

Troubleshooting

Thread breaking during machine sewing

Check if the needle is blunt or bent and replace if necessary. Ensure the correct needle size (70-90) is being used for the fabric type. Verify machine tension settings.

Skipped stitches

Confirm the needle is inserted correctly and is the appropriate type for your machine and fabric. Ensure the thread is properly seated in the machine's tension discs and guides.

Excessive lint in sewing machine

While this thread is designed to be lint-free, ensure your sewing machine's bobbin case and feed dogs are clean. A new needle can also sometimes resolve lint issues.

Care: Store the thread in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its strength and color integrity.
