Embroidery thread for beginners

Start with useful colors and known fiber types rather than a giant mystery bundle.

01

Start with the decision

02

What changes the answer

Bobbin thread is deliberately lighter than the decorative top thread.

03

A sensible next step

Color consistency matters if a customer may reorder the same design later.
