This is how I work with embroidery thread and gives me a double thread. My ? is don't you end up with a double thread when you do this. Most quilting and finishing is done with a single thread. I know it doesn't matter but hiding two threads is harder than one thread when doing binding. Please let me know if I am wrong about this because I like the looping method. TFS
