Matching needle/fabric/thread

	FABRICS	THREAD	NEEDLE SIZE
Light weight	Thin cottons, voile, serge, silk, muslin, Qiana, interlocks, cotton knits, tricot, jerseys, crepes, woven polyester, shirt & blouse fabrics.	Light-duty thread in cotton, nylon, polyester or cotton wrapped polyester.	65/9 - 75/11
Medium weight	Cotton, satin, kettleclote, sailcloth, double knits, lightweight woolens.	Most threads sold are medium size and suitable for these fabrics and needle sizes.	80/12
Medium weight	Cotton duck, woolen, heavier knits, terrycloth, denims.	Use polyester threads on synthetic materials and cotton on natural woven fabrics for best results.	90/14
Heavy weight	Canvas, woolens, outdoor tent and quilted fabrics, denims, upholstery material (light to medium).	Always use the same thread on top and bottom.	100/16

- Note: In general, fine threads and needles are used for sewing fine fabrics, thicker threads and needles are used for sewing heavy fabrics.

Always test thread and needle size on a small piece of fabric which will be used for actual sewing.

Use the same thread for needle and bobbin.
