I could not find silk beading thread in the color I wanted so I was delighted to find this. It is much finer than the thread I usually use (one strand snapped easily when I pulled on it) so I doubled it up and it worked well; I was even able to run four strands through 15/0 seed beads with no problem. It was very slippery so if using for machine embroidery it will look lustrous and smooth. It's practically invisible in the project. Time will tell how well the bracelet holds up to wear.

Was trying to match my daughter's prom dress via the color sample picture provided here, I am so impressed with how accurate their sample pictures are! The color is dead perfect! Plus the quality is great, and it arrived faster than expected. Just, wow!!!!

This thread is awesome and strong, but you shouldn't buy it from amazon!!! On Superiorthreads.com, you can buy it for $3-6 dollars per spool!! (On amazon, each color is $7-10)If you need multiple colors, that really adds up!!

Exactly as pictured. Beautiful color of Gold! Spool is maybe 1 1/4" high, so rather a small spool. I haven't used it yet so I don't know it's hand yet.

ストレッチ素材の服が縫製甘いときにこれで縫い直して補強してますちょっと切りにくいとか絡みやすいとかはあるけど私がお裁縫下手だからですね手縫いだと絡みやすいけどミシンなら問題ないです。そもそもミシン糸だしただビーズを付けるのにも柔軟性があって良いから手縫いにも使うのです変な文章になってしまった

Seems to last forever. I had to use 4 strands to stitch a fine line. Retained shine and strength through several washings as a test. So much more than I expected.
