Stretching the Imagination
In sewing, the highly stretchable ELASTIC thread—made of elastane and polyester—is particularly well-suited for smocking, whether on stiff or stretchy fabrics. When quilting, the Elastic thread can be used to create particularly beautiful effects—including three-dimensional ones—on the fabric’s surface.
When using Amann-Mettler’s ELASTIC thread as the bobbin thread, the density can be adjusted via the bobbin tension. Some sewing machine manufacturers offer special presser feet in their product lines that “couch” Elastic threads through a guide hole. Here, too, the density can be adjusted using the bobbin tension.
Other applications include ruffled hems and puff embroidery. Be sure to use relatively long running stitches, and backstitches are absolutely necessary.
Amann-Mettler’s elastic thread is in stock at Die Stoffschwester in all available colors.
