Dark Blue stands cool and quiet. If you want seams to stay factual, this part of the palette is unavoidable. 100 m per spool, number 6950 — that amount is cut for topstitching rather than whole garments. For the underside take ordinary sewing thread in a matching colour.
On bags in canvas and faux leather that heavy seam looks right too. The spool is cleanly wound and feeds evenly — with a heavy thread that matters more than with a fine one. The spool covers topstitching on several pairs of trousers.
What Gütermann Denim Jeansnähgarn Dunkelblau is suitable for
- topstitching on canvas bags
- repairs on existing jeans seams
- visible seams on faux leather
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
Which needle do I need?
A jeans needle in size 90 to 110. It has a stronger point and a sturdier shaft so it does not snap on thick layers. A universal needle does not stand up to the load.
Which thread belongs on the bobbin?
Ordinary sewing thread in a matching colour. This heavy denim thread belongs in the machine as a top thread only; below it would add bulk and upset stitch formation, since the hook must take up more thread.
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.
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.
