Gutermann Sew All Polyester Sewing Thread - 250 Metres

While Gutermann Sew All is strong and durable for general use, for very heavy-duty applications like upholstery or sails, a dedicated heavier thread might offer superior performance and longevity.

This thread is designed for general sewing. For decorative embroidery, specialized embroidery threads are recommended as they often have a different sheen and strength profile suitable for intricate designs.

Gutermann Sew All Polyester Sewing Thread is made from 100% polyester.

The 100m reels are available in a much wider range of colors, ideal for projects requiring specific shades. The larger reels (250m, 500m, 1000m) offer better value for money but come in a more limited selection of core colors.

Polyester threads are generally colorfast and resistant to fading, but it's always recommended to follow the fabric's care instructions for washing and drying to maintain color vibrancy.

It means the thread is processed to minimize shedding fibers during sewing. This results in a cleaner workspace, a cleaner sewing machine, and cleaner finished projects, reducing the need for frequent machine cleaning.

Ensure the sewing machine needle is sharp and correctly inserted. Check that the thread is correctly seated in the tension discs and that the tension is not set too high. Verify the thread is not snagged on the spool or elsewhere.

Confirm the machine needle is the correct type and size for your fabric and thread. Ensure the needle is not bent or dull. Check that the machine is properly threaded.

While the thread is designed to be lint-free, ensure your machine's feed dogs and bobbin area are clean. A very old or damaged needle can sometimes cause unusual fiber shedding from any thread.
