I got some really pretty Dark copper embroidery thread from a friend but don't know what kind it is. Anyway it's really soft feeling and so shiny kinda looks like 2 or 3 strands twisted together, so I'm using it to do names and it keeps wanting to shred or break after awhile. I have the tension turned down to pretty slow and I have double checked to see if bobbin is in correctly . Any other suggestions for using this? I also have some other colors and want to use it in my Christmas gifts so need advice please? Also hubby made me a thread spool stand so I can put it on there with a thread net and it is astanding one instead of it laying horizontal.
Thanks in advance!
