Description
Dusty Mint is a tone that reads neither cold nor warm. That makes it straightforward on many fabrics. 400 m at weight 40, printed with colour code 1900 — that is how you find this tone again later. On dense designs it pays to slow your machine down.
For lettering and monograms the fineness is well chosen: letters do not close up. This thread is tuned to embroidery machines: evenly twisted, tear-resistant and smooth enough to pass the needle eye without friction. The spool belongs upright in your box so the thread does not unwind on its own.
What Madeira Polyneon Embroidery Thread 400 m Dusty Mint is suitable for
- machine embroidery on cotton, sweat and terry
- monograms and lettering
- area fill stitches where the sheen pays off
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
Do I need a separate bobbin thread?
Yes. A fine bobbin thread belongs in the case, not this same embroidery thread. Otherwise the reverse builds bulk, a design ripples and your machine pulls more thread than it needs.
Why does my design ripple?
Usually stitch density is too high or stabiliser is missing. Reduce density in your software, add suitable stabiliser and hoop the fabric taut but not stretched.
Is the spool sold singly?
Yes, every spool is available on its own. That lets you restock one tone instead of ordering an assortment of which half stays unused in your box.
Which colour suits which fabric?
Dark tones work on light ground, light tones on dark. When unsure, lay the thread on the fabric before stitching — on a screen every colour looks different than in your hand.
