FAQs

Is Gutermann Sew All Thread suitable for outdoor fabrics?

Yes, its strength and durability make it suitable for many outdoor applications, though specific UV-resistant threads might be preferred for prolonged extreme exposure.

Can I use this thread for embroidery?

While it's a strong general-purpose thread, it's not specifically designed for embroidery. For detailed embroidery, dedicated embroidery threads are recommended for better sheen and texture.

What does 'seam resistance reserve' mean?

It refers to the extra strength the thread has beyond the normal stress a seam will encounter, ensuring greater durability and preventing stitches from breaking under strain.

How do I choose the right color?

For most projects, select a thread that matches the fabric exactly or is one shade darker. For decorative seams, choose a contrasting color.

What is the difference between the 100m reels and larger reels?

The 100m reels offer a much wider color selection for smaller projects, while the larger reels (250m, 500m, 1000m) provide better value per meter for larger or ongoing projects, but come in a more limited range of basic colors.

Is this thread suitable for children's clothing?

Yes, it is a high-quality polyester thread suitable for all garments, including children's clothing, as it is durable and produces secure seams.

Does the color fade over time?

Gutermann threads are known for their colorfastness. However, like any textile, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight or strong detergents can lead to fading.

Troubleshooting

Thread breaking during sewing

Ensure the correct needle size (70-90) is used for the fabric. Check that the needle is not blunt or bent. Verify machine tension is properly set and that the thread is not snagged on the spool.

Skipped stitches

Clean the sewing machine's bobbin case and needle plate. Use a new, sharp needle of the recommended size. Ensure the thread is feeding smoothly from the spool.

Lint build-up in machine

Although this thread produces minimal lint, ensure your machine is regularly cleaned and the bobbin area is free of debris. Use a small brush to clean the feed dogs and needle plate.

Uneven or puckered seams

Adjust the upper and lower thread tension on your sewing machine. Ensure you are using the correct needle size and type for your fabric. Slowing down your sewing speed can also help.
