Advantages of Long-Staple Sewing Thread:
This style of sewing machine thread means cotton fibers are longer and stronger than a standard cotton thread. Making it more durable and less likely to break and fray giving you consistent stitch quality.
Versatility:
Ideal for flatter seams in quilting, piecing, paper piecing, all-purpose sewing, apparel, crafting, and bag making. Sewers like how this thread blends naturally into their projects.
Low Lint for Cleaner Sewing:
Cotton thread is typically known for its lint build up. This cotton thread is mercerized which minimizes lint and reduces build up. This allows for less machine maintenance resulting a smoother sewing experience.
Cotton Thread vs Polyester Thread:
There are many "rules" in the sewing world about what threads to use when... YOU make the rules! What's important to know if the differences. Glide 40wt. is a Polyester thread that is known for its high sheen finish and is thicker, stronger, and virtually lint free. Cotton threads like Cairo Quilt 50wt have more of a matte and natural finish. Giving a softer look to projects, where the goal is to blend into the fabrics creating a classic look.
