Thread Weights

Understanding thread weights is essential for achieving the best results in your sewing, quilting, and embroidery projects. Thread weight refers to the thickness of the thread, with lower numbers indicating thicker threads and higher numbers representing finer threads. 100 weight is our finest thread and 8 weight is our thickest thread. Common weights include 40wt for machine embroidery, 50wt for general sewing and piecing, and 12wt for bold decorative stitching. Choosing the right thread weight affects stitch quality, tension, and the overall finish of your work.
