Can this floss be used with actual embroidery and other needle projects or is it best with less delicate crafts, like bracelets?

I have only used the floss for actual embroidery and it worked beautifully.

yes, the floss can go through them. on the note from jessica the color on the beads are on or around half of the bead the rest of it is just clear, but i still like them and i love the crackle look.

Believe it of not...Dental Floss works best when having to slice Velvetta cheese into thin slices

These needles, Clover No. 3-9 Gold Eye Embroidery, can cover many types of different embroidery patterns and material types. The size of the needle depends on the type of material you wish to use. These are perfect for the embroidery cloths I use, even with pre-stamped patterns, counted cross stitch, and free hand patterns that you wish to make as an heirloom or sampler. I have used these many times and have had great satisfaction in the pieces I have worked with including baby quilts, pillowcases and and hand towels for the kitchen and bath. Use them well and have great fun.

My wife is the one that uses this. She uses this for fusing two fabrics together for quilting. She says that she does not have any problems with gumming up her needles or with sticky residue when using this product. She explains that there are particular stabilizers for embroidery. She says that you should speak with a sewing machine shop/embroidery specialty shop as to the proper stabilizer for embroidery. She is assuming that you are using the stabilizer with machine embroidery.

Hi yes they will work but the thread is cheap it frays and breaks easily it may be ok for hobby embroidery but if you plan on doing it for resale i recommend Isacord thread :) I hope this helps you :)

It takes a 'normal' sewing needle. I use Schmetz brand #11s for general purpose. There are many reasons for needles breaking. Wrong needle for material or maybe the needle was too tight or too loose. I break needles in my embroidery machine almost weekly!

Yes this thread has a beautiful end result in most all embroidery machines.....Keep in mind to purchase a needle for your machine that has a larger Needle eye then most ...the reason for this is to keep the thread from fraying as you are using it.....some decorative threads tend to be softer and more fragile so as they pull with the tension of the machine they can break off eaisier....ask your favorite Fabric shop for the larger eyed needles....they are actually just as sharp they just have a more elongated eye for the thread......Best of luck with your sewing adventures.

I use it for my baby lock sophia and pe 770. It is very user friendly...i picked it up quickly. I could not grasp embroidery and do not sew what pro at all...i use only buzz programs as I find them the most user friendly.

The difference between sewing and embroidery machine that sewing thread is more stronger and thicker. On the other hand, embroidery is very thin and thin. It is not a good idea to sew a project with embroidery thread, more likely the project will tear apart very soon. I will recommend to check polyester sewing thread. It will be good for any fabric and very strong.

Not for hand embroidery. Machine embroidery may be okay for small jobs, not enough thread for larger jobs.

I would be hesitant to use them around needles. That would be a manufacturer questions, but I would be really surprised if they said yes.

I have been using it to secure notions after sewing on. I just dot the knot with a bit of this.

It was recommended to me for use in my embroidery machine. It is hooped by itself and is water soluable. I use it to make free standing lace. I've never tried to draw on it.

I would baste it on. The adhesive spray may effect your embroidery. It is not an iron on product.

I would say so. Comes with great instructions. I am not an expert myself and I found it very easy to work. Dimensions are also very nice about sending more floss if you run out which seldom happens.

There is a curved needle that would work better, but any needle would work if you are careful when sewing up the rip/tear. If you expect to sew and make the tear more water tight then keep the stitches closer together.
