Guidelines
We require that members buy higher-quality thread, as in most textile crafting, buying cheaper thread means paying for it in time lost due to threads snapping, tangling and bunching up. It is also costly in terms of machine upkeep and volunteer work if the machine breaks.
It is recommended to use silk thread for embroidery projects, or rayon for smaller budgets. This is because regular thread is thicker and tends to pile up or jam in embroidery machines.
Best to use embroidery bobbin thread because it has a finer weight, and won't build up under the embroidery.
As with all sewing projects, it is recommended to have some scrap fabric and thread to do a quick test run of your setup before commencing the full project.
