2- I have a lot of embroidery thread, I mean a lot of it, my question is: Does it ever get too weak or rotten to safely use on projects?
Thanks for any help I can get on this.
It sounds odd, but thread can dry out and dehydrate and get brittle, and break easily, so leave it out in the open on some rainy days, let it rehydrate, and you will be surprised that it regains its toughness.
