Description
With Blue Green you hit the range between blue and yellow. Depending on your fabric the tone reads fresher or calmer. 400 m, weight 40, colour code 1685: three figures worth more in a project book than any colour description. The spool is sold singly, so you can top up one tone on purpose.
Because this thread resists chlorine, a design holds up on swimwear and workwear washed aggressively. The material is polyester, the finish smooth and even — together that gives a thread which lies flat inside a design.
What Madeira Polyneon Embroidery Thread 400 m Blue Green is suitable for
- designs on swimwear and workwear
- embroidery on textiles washed hot
- quilting stitches as a design element
Sewing tips
- Die Oberfadenspannung beim Sticken lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
- Ein dünnes Untergarn als Unterfaden nehmen, nicht dasselbe Polyneon.
- Ein Fadennetz über der Spule verhindert, dass sich der Faden in Schlaufen legt.
- Nadelstärke 75 oder 80 mit Stickspitze reicht für die meisten Stoffe.
- Bei dichten Motiven langsamer sticken, sonst erhitzt der Faden und reißt.
- Die Farbnummer ist die Identität des Tons — sie gehört ins Projektheft.

Frequently asked questions
How far does one spool go?
It depends on your design: a monogram needs a few metres, a densely stitched area many times more. For recurring designs in one colour the larger spool pays off.
How do I plan several colours?
Fix the sequence beforehand and lay the spools out in that order. It saves time at each change and prevents similar tones being swapped by mistake.
Which colour should the bobbin thread be?
White under light fabrics, black under dark ones. On sheer material a look from the right side before stitching pays off — the wrong bobbin thread shimmers through a design.
Does this thread shed lint?
Polyester sheds hardly any lint, unlike cotton thread. Even so, dust gathers in the hook area over time. Brushing it out monthly keeps your machine clean and stitching even.
