Choose polyester thread by colour and sewing use

Polyester thread is a versatile choice for everyday machine sewing. It offers good strength, resists shrinkage and has slight give, making it useful for garments, alterations, repairs, crafts and soft furnishings.

Dressmaking and alterations

Use polyester thread for many woven, synthetic and blended fabrics. It can also suit some stretch fabrics when paired with an appropriate stitch, needle and tension. Test the thread on a fabric offcut before sewing the final seam.

Soft furnishings and general sewing

Its durability makes polyester thread practical for cushions, light furnishing projects, workshop use and regular restocking. Check each product page for thread weight, spool length and machine suitability.

Colour matching

Screen colours vary. Compare the thread against your fabric in natural light and use shade or colour codes for repeat orders. Physical samples are available in our Swatches & Samples category.
