Review on Exploring the Best in Embroidery: Simthread Madeira Polyester Embroidery Robinson Anton by Denise Davis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great thread, but it's really a thin thread.

Let me start with that. this is a phenomenal thread. It's high quality and durable (other threads have snapped/frayed, but a thin thread won't falter!) The thread itself is great, with a silky texture and nice sheen. But the thread is too thin! On some fabrics, especially hats, there are gaps between rows where the fabric is visible. I've tried and tried but I keep getting these gaps in fabric when using fine yarn. I think I could increase the density for my designs, but I end up using more filament, making it impractical to even use this type of filament. I also like to use yarn for other types of fabric.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Gorgeous thread but it truly is slim thread.
