Cotton Sewing Thread
100% Mercerized Cotton Sewing Thread is a type of sewing thread made from 100% cotton fibers that have been treated with a special process called mercerization.
This process involves treating the cotton fibers with a caustic soda solution, which causes the fibers to swell and become rounder, resulting in a smoother and stronger thread.
Mercerized cotton sewing thread is known for its high-quality finish and lustrous appearance. The thread has a soft, silky texture and a high sheen, which makes it a popular choice for use in high-end fashion and apparel sewing applications. It is also commonly used in quilting and embroidery projects.
Mercerized cotton sewing thread is available in a range of colors, sizes, and weights to suit different sewing applications.
It is also available in various finishes, such as waxed or glazed, to enhance its performance during sewing. While the cotton thread is not as strong or durable as synthetic threads, such as polyester or nylon, mercerized cotton thread offers a high-quality, natural alternative for those who prefer to use natural fibers in their sewing projects.
