Description
The tone Apple Green brings nature into a project. Beside wood, linen and earth shades it looks self-evident. 820 m, weight 40, colour code 1904 — printed on the spool so the tone stays findable. Spools ship singly, so you can top up one specific tone on purpose.
Polyester takes colour permanently. On pieces that go into the wash often, that is the decisive advantage over viscose. The thread takes strain while staying supple. Exactly that mixture separates a clean design from a restless one.
What Sulky Poly Deco Embroidery Thread 820 m Apple Green is suitable for
- monograms and lettering
- appliqué on children's clothes
- quilting stitches as a design element
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 do I set the thread tension?
While embroidering the top tension may sit slightly looser than for sewing. It is right when the reverse shows roughly one third top thread and two thirds bobbin thread.
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.
How should I store the spools?
Upright, dry and out of direct light. Polyester is lightfast, but dust on the thread carries lint into your machine. A closed box is the simplest answer.
May I iron over the embroidery?
Better from the reverse and with a cloth between. Polyester takes heat, but direct heat on the surface flattens the stitches and robs a design of its relief.
