Description
Warm and light: Neon Sun suits anything meant to look summery and keeps its brightness through the wash. The spool holds 400 m of embroidery thread at weight 40, and the colour code reads 1883. On dense designs it pays to slow your machine down.
For towels, bathrobes and bed linen boil resistance decides: a design keeps its colour even when washed hot. Polyneon is strong enough for densely stitched areas while staying soft, so a finished design feels pleasant. Before your first design a test piece on the same fabric with the same stabiliser pays off.
What Madeira Polyneon Embroidery Thread 400 m Neon Sun is suitable for
- machine embroidery on cotton, sweat and terry
- decorative stitches on a sewing machine
- labelling bags and gym sacks
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 may I wash the finished piece?
As its fabric allows. The thread is boil-proof and chlorine-proof, so it sets no limit on temperature. That limit comes from the material you stitched on.
Does the sheen last?
Yes. The shimmer arises inside the polyester filament rather than from a coating. So it is lost neither in the wash nor under an iron, as long as your fabric takes the treatment.
How do I hoop the fabric properly?
Taut like a drum skin, but without stretching. Pull at the cloth and you get ripples once it comes out. On stretch material a fusible stabiliser on the reverse helps as well.
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.
