Machine Embroidery Bobbin Thread
180's Machine Embroidery Bobbin Thread is extra fine and is produced solely for use with embroidery machines, whether freehand or in the hoop.
Machine embroidery bobbin thread is a special type of bobbin thread used in embroidery machines. Embroidery bobbin thread is thinner than regular embroidery thread, which helps reduce the bulk of the stitches. This is especially important when creating intricate designs or when working on lightweight fabrics. Since the bobbin thread is not as thick as the top thread, it helps prevent a noticeable bulge on the backside of the embroidered design. This is particularly crucial for items like monogrammed clothing, where a clean and smooth finish on both sides is desired.
Using a finer bobbin thread also allows for longer stitching time before the bobbin needs to be replaced. This is convenient for longer embroidery runs, as fewer interruptions are needed to refill the bobbin.
Some embroidery machines may have specific recommendations regarding the type and weight of bobbin thread to use, so it's advisable to consult the machine's manual for guidance.
