As a general rule, fine threads and needles are used to sew thin fa-
brics, thicker threads and needles are used for heavier fabrics. Al-
ways test the thread and needle thickness on a scrap of the fabric
you intend to use. Use the same thread for needle and bobbin. If
you sew stretch stitches on fine fabrics or synthetics, use a needle
with a blue shaft (available from specialist retailers). These prevent
stitches from being missed.
