Yellow stands on its own. Beside muted fabrics the tone reads stronger than its brightness suggests. Number 1380, 100 m of yardage: with those figures you find this tone again for your next pair of trousers. For the underside take ordinary sewing thread in a matching colour.
On bags in canvas and faux leather that heavy seam looks right too. Gütermann supplies it in the typical gold and copper tones of a jeans seam — exactly the colours that are otherwise hard to find. Note the number with your project, otherwise the tone is missed later.
What Gütermann Denim Jeansnähgarn Gelb is suitable for
- topstitching on canvas bags
- contrast seams on skirts and dresses
- pocket bags and patch pockets
Sewing tips
- Eine Jeansnadel der Stärke 90 bis 110 verwenden, sonst bricht sie an dicken Lagen.
- Für die Ziernaht das Denim-Garn als Oberfaden, unten normales Nähgarn in passender Farbe.
- Stichlänge auf drei bis dreieinhalb Millimeter stellen, das sieht an Jeans richtig aus.
- An dicken Stellen langsam nähen und notfalls das Handrad drehen.
- Fadenspannung etwas erhöhen, damit die Steppnaht straff liegt.

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to change the tension?
Usually yes, a touch tighter. Heavy thread needs more pull for topstitching to lie flat. A test piece on the same layers answers faster than any settings table.
Which colour suits blue denim?
Traditionally a gold or copper tone. The contrast turns your seam into a design element. For something calmer, take a tone near the fabric — losing the typical jeans look.
How far does one spool go?
Across topstitching on several pairs of trousers. Since only the top thread uses it and topstitching runs short, the spool lasts longer than its length first suggests.
Is the spool sold singly?
Yes, every spool on its own. Since denim thread is usually needed in one tone per project, buying the single tone beats an assortment.
