Needle Threaders Hollow Rose Flower Head Wire Loop Needle Threaders

This is a pack of 10 individually-wrapped threaders. I use different thread thicknesses, which I've tried with. This threader is wonderful for average sewing and embroidery threads and large or largish needle eyes, not as much for thicker threads or small eye needles that require of a bit of pulling through the needle eye; if this is the case, the tip wires break easily as they're too feeble. This is the main issue with the threader, its wires. The metallic head is absolutely beautiful and good quality; when the threader wires get broken, I keep the head to use it an embellishment in my artwork. 
 

SASHIKO Thread Thin 40M Card - Yellow 204

I love this thread because of its quality and strength. This is the thin version of the thread; having used this brand thread in both thicknesses, I can say that I prefer the thicker version over this one. However, this is still an excellent thread, perfect for stitching and mending in general, and for Shashiko stitching in particular. I bought it to use it in my artwork on paper or small pieces of fabric and does the job; it's great for flat stitching, not as much as as for embroidery as it doesn't have the volume and thickness necessary for that. I love the flat bobbin format, as it's easy to put away, the thread does not get entangled and it has a rabbet to hold the thread tip neatly. Needless to say, I love this thread bright intense colour.

SASHIKO Thread Thick 30M Card - Grey 217


I love this thread because of the quality, strength and thickness of the thread. It's great for stitching in general and for stitching on paper particularly, something I do often in my artwork. I love the flat bobbin packaging, as it's easy to store away and the thread does not entangle. This thread is perfect for Sashiko stitching and any other decorative flat stitching, but not for embroidery stitching.
