How to Choose Hemming Thread

Hemming thread is the basic sewing thread used in the process of sewing parts together. We offer materials suited to garment sewing, centered on polyester, silk, and nylon.

Choose the properties of each material according to the item being sewn and the desired finish. If you value strength, dimensional stability, and quick-drying performance, polyester is the standard choice. If you want to take advantage of luster, a smooth feel against the skin, and moisture absorbency, silk is the standard choice. If you want lightness and abrasion resistance, nylon is the standard choice.

This introduction was written by AI based on product data, reviews and the ApparelX Wiki.

Use sewing thread for the main stitching!

Have you ever used sewing machine thread as a substitute when you didn't have any regular sewing thread on hand?
The sewing machine thread is twisted to the left to match the sewing machine, but the thread used for the main stitching is twisted to the right.
If you use machine thread for hand sewing, it will twist and tangle, making it very difficult to sew.
Don't be lazy; choose sewing thread for the main stitching.
