Yes, it can be used on most home and industrial sewing and embroidery machines. However, you may need to adjust your machine's tension and use a specific needle type for best results.
Items should be washed in cold water on a gentle cycle and air-dried. Iron on a low setting, preferably on the reverse side of the fabric, avoiding direct contact with the thread.
While durable for embroidery, rayon is not as strong as polyester. It's best for items that won't undergo extreme stress or frequent heavy washing. For highly durable everyday wear, consider polyester embroidery threads.
'No 40' refers to the thread weight or thickness. A lower number generally indicates a thicker thread, while a higher number indicates a finer thread. No. 40 is a medium-fine weight, common for embroidery.
The Gutermann Sulky Rayon range comes in a huge range of shades, allowing for extensive color matching with your projects.
Check for burrs on the sewing machine needle plate or hook. Ensure the correct needle size and type are being used. Adjust machine tension, and consider using a thread net if the cone is unravelling too quickly.
Ensure the needle is inserted correctly and is not bent. Clean the bobbin case and check the bobbin tension. A new, sharp needle often resolves this issue.
Verify the thread path is correct through the machine guides. Adjust upper tension to be slightly looser. Ensure the bobbin is inserted correctly and the thread is feeding smoothly.
Re-examine machine tension settings. The top thread might be too loose or the bobbin thread too tight. Ensure consistent speed while sewing.
