When embroidering with metallic threads, we recommend that you:

• use a size 90 /14 needle
• reduce the stitches per minute (slow your machine down).
• Tip from Linda: wind your bobbin with the matching metallic thread, let the bobbin relax overnight and then you won't have tension issues when embroidering.

Note: Please order embroidery threads by colour number, in numerical order, to aid us in processing your order.
