Product Information

Full details

This Gutermann Sew All Polyester Sewing Thread is designed for all sewers, from beginners to experienced crafters, looking for a reliable and versatile thread for general sewing projects. Its key benefit is its high tear resistance and ability to produce durable, lint-free seams on all fabric types, suitable for both hand and machine sewing. A potential consideration is that the 100-meter reels, while offering a vast color selection, may be less economical for very large projects compared to larger spool sizes.

FAQs

What makes Gutermann Sew All thread 'lint-free'?

The high-quality polyester fibers are constructed and treated to minimize shedding during the sewing process, resulting in cleaner stitches and a tidier workspace.

Can I use this thread for heavy-duty projects like upholstery?

While excellent for general sewing and durable seams, for extremely heavy-duty applications like thick upholstery fabrics, you might consider specialized heavy-duty threads. However, for most home decor and standard garment projects, this thread provides excellent strength.

How do I choose the right color?

For garments, it's best to match the thread color as closely as possible to the fabric. For decorative stitching or crafts, feel free to choose a contrasting or complementary color.

Are the larger reels (250M, 500M, 1000M) the same quality as the 100M reels?

Yes, all Gutermann Sew All threads are made to the same high-quality standards. The larger reels simply offer better value for money for users who require larger quantities of specific colors.

What is the recommended needle size for this thread?

The recommended needle size is 70-90. This range covers most common fabric types and sewing applications.

Is this thread suitable for invisible zippers?

Yes, its strength and fine finish make it suitable for sewing invisible zippers, especially when using a zipper foot on your sewing machine.

Troubleshooting

Thread breaking during machine sewing

Check needle size (ensure it's 70-90), replace needle if dull or damaged, adjust machine tension, and ensure the thread is feeding smoothly from the spool.

Skipped stitches

Ensure the correct needle size and type are used, check that the needle is inserted correctly and is not bent, and verify that the machine is properly threaded.

Lint buildup on fabric or in machine

While this thread is designed to be lint-free, ensure your sewing machine's feed dogs and bobbin area are clean. Using a new, sharp needle can also help.

Seams appear weak or uneven

Verify machine tension settings, ensure stitches are appropriate for the fabric weight, and confirm you are using the recommended needle size.

Compatibility:

  • Fabrics: Compatible with all types of fabrics, from natural fibers like cotton and linen to synthetics like polyester and nylon, as well as blends.
