Description
Light Red is a strong tone read at once on any ground. As topstitching it needs nothing else beside it. The spool carries 820 m. Weight 40 is the usual fineness for machine embroidery, and the colour code reads 1020. Beyond the sheen it is mainly tear resistance that separates this thread from matt sewing thread.
On terry and sweat this thread adds hardly any bulk while staying clearly visible — exactly what an embroidery thread should do. Sulky built Poly Deco for machines that run fast. The thread takes friction in the needle eye without fraying.
What Sulky Poly Deco Embroidery Thread 820 m Light Red is suitable for
- appliqué on children's clothes
- decorative stitches on a sewing machine
- embroidery on textiles washed hot
Sewing tips
- Für Stickmaschinen die Oberfadenspannung etwas lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
- Als Unterfaden gehört ein dünnes Untergarn, nicht dasselbe Stickgarn.
- Die Spule so aufstecken, dass der Faden gleichmäßig abläuft — ein Fadennetz verhindert Schlaufen.
- Zu schnelles Sticken lässt den Faden reißen; bei dichten Motiven das Tempo drosseln.
- Stickvlies passend zum Stoff wählen: Die schönste Farbe nützt nichts, wenn sich das Motiv wellt.
- Farbnummer notieren, dann lässt sich dieselbe Farbe später eindeutig nachbestellen.

Frequently asked questions
How far does one spool go?
That depends on your design. A monogram needs a few metres, a densely stitched area many times more. This large spool is sized to survive several projects.
Can I sew with it normally?
For decorative seams yes, for load-bearing seams rather not. Embroidery thread is built for sheen and suppleness, not for the tensile strength a structural seam needs over years.
Does this thread suit hand embroidery?
In principle yes, though it is unusual. For hand work people take divisible cotton stranded thread. Machine thread is finer and more slippery, but it shines considerably more.
Is the spool sold singly?
Yes, every spool is available on its own. That lets you restock one specific tone instead of ordering a whole assortment of which you need only half.
