FAQs

What types of fabric can I use this thread on?

Gutermann Sew All thread is designed for all types of materials, including natural fibers, synthetics, and blends.

Is this thread suitable for upholstery or heavy-duty projects?

While strong for general sewing, for extremely heavy-duty applications like thick upholstery or outdoor gear, a dedicated heavy-duty thread might be more appropriate. However, it performs well for most standard garment and home décor projects.

How should I store my thread spools?

Store thread spools in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to maintain their quality and color.

Can I use this thread for embroidery?

This thread is primarily for general sewing. For decorative embroidery, specialized embroidery threads may offer better sheen and thickness.

What does '50% seam resistance reserve' mean?

It means the thread's strength is significantly higher than the force typically required to break a seam, ensuring greater durability and less chance of seam failure.

Are the larger reels available in all colors?

No, the larger reels (250, 500, 1000 meters) come in a smaller, more basic range of colors compared to the extensive selection available on the 100-meter reels.

Does this thread shrink?

Polyester thread is generally resistant to shrinkage. Pre-washing fabric before sewing is still recommended for best results.

Troubleshooting

Thread breaking during sewing

Ensure the needle is sharp and the correct size for the fabric. Check machine tension settings, as overly tight tension can cause breakage. Avoid pulling the fabric too forcefully while sewing.

Excessive lint in sewing machine

Although this thread is designed for low lint, ensure your machine's bobbin area is clean. A dull needle can also contribute to thread fraying and lint.

Uneven stitches

Verify that the thread is correctly threaded through the machine, especially the tension discs. Adjust the upper and lower tension as needed for the specific fabric and stitch type.
