| Polyester embroidery thread | Cotton gives a softer hand and natural look on finished embroidery, while polyester is stronger and more resistant to fading |
|---|---|
| 100% filament polyester thread | Cotton has better breathability and a natural feel, while filament polyester is more durable and less prone to linting |
Use Guide
