FLORIANI PRESS N BOND FUSIBLE THREAD FPNB-T800
Use in the loopers of sergers for an easy way to hem! This heat activated, white color thread (800m) is the ultimate "blind hem." Use with patches and emblems on apparel like jeans or ball caps.
- Press N Bond Thread winds easily onto any style bobbin.
- Choose an embroidery design with ample stitches—a slim applique, lettering or running stitch will not expose enough of the thread for successful fusing.
- It may be necessary to increase the upper tension just slightly to expose more bobbin thread on the back of the embroidery.
- Let the garment go completely cool before moving!
- Test the fabric and top embroidery thread to ensure the iron heat will not damage either. Use only on fabrics that can withstand direct pressing with an iron or heat-press.
