Tex 40 is a multi-purpose thread that is strong and smooth. Sturdier than our other multi-purpose threads we recommend Tex 40 for sportswear, home decor, dolls and other products that will take some wear and tear. If coating is required for hand sewing, use beeswax.

*Organic cotton is not affected by needle heat, pressing or steaming, the thread strength increases when it is wet.

Natural colored thread has not been processed in any way except washing, it is perfect for piece-dyeing (overdyeing). Colored thread will not bleed or fade and the colors are not effected by washing.
Tex 40 and Tex 70 in Natural color have not been lightened or dyed. The cotton has simply been washed and spun, to support manufacturers who piece dye and for the safety of our customers with MCS.
