Are there some basic rules about threads? I’ve tried searching but I think I’m using the wrong terms, possibly?
I’d bought some embroidery threads (pretty colours!) and used them to pep up my basic mug mats etc. that I made for Xmas presents but I found them breaking constantly on my more expensive Juki although they sewed ok on my much cheaper Brother machine. I used the same thread for the bobbin as I used on the top, before anyone asks.
It got me thinking and I wondered if there is a useful guide someone can point me too that explains about different types of threads and their uses?
I was reading some US pages and they included various brandnames of thread (many I’d never heard of) and disparaging Gütermann, which I thought was a top brand, plus used a numbering system that I’ve not seen either
It’s all rather confusing...
