5 NEEDLE AND THREAD SELECTION The selection of thread should be based on the fabric to be stitched. The thread shoul d blend with the fabric in colour, fibre and size. Silk and wool fabrics should be stitched with silk thread; cotton fabrics should be stitched with cotton or cotton mercerised thread, etc. The thread must be of a size that will imbed itself into the texture of the fabric. Thread that is too heavy for the fabric will remain on the surface and become weakened by friction and abrasion when worn. The selection of the needle should be based on both the fabric and thread being used. The eye of the needle must be large enough for the thread to pass freely through it. The blade of the needle must be fine enough not to mar the fabric with too large a puncture, yet heavy enough to pierce the fabric without binding or deflecting. You will obtain best stitching results from your Sewing Machine if it is fitted with a SINGER* Needle.

of
the
fabric.
Thread
that
is
too

will
remain
on
the
surface
and
become
weakened
by
friction
and
abrasion
when
worn.
The
selection
of
the
needle
should
be
based
on
both
the
fabric
and
thread
being
used.
The
eye
of

enough
for
the
thread
to

freely
through
it.
The

not
to
mar
the
fabric
with
too
large
a

yet
heavy
enough
to
pierce
the
fabric
without
binding
or

You
will
obtain
best
stitching
results
from
your
Sewing
Machine
if
it
is
