Machine embroidery thread for piecing?
Hi,
I am piecing the tops for quilts. I am running short of regular thread, but have lots of polyester machine embroidery thread. Most of it is 40. Can I use that for piecing the quilt tops? Thanks for any advice. |

Machine embroidery thread for piecing?
Finer thread is usually better for piecing. Can you use it up for
quilting, and get some 50 for piecing? A thicker thread takes up more 'space' in the fold and can disrupt your seam allowances. .. In message , B writes Hi, I am piecing the tops for quilts.
