Available in sewing departments at most fabric shops and anyone who sells honey.

This is what I use although I do have beeswax somewhere.

I use bees wax when I reload for my pistol bullets, couldn't find any when I ran out. Thanks for the heads up now I will get some not only for my sewing but my shooting also.

P.S. never knew about it for sewing that is what I hate about hand sewing is the thread knotting and twisting.

I've always used it, but recently I've been using Thread Heaven.

This is the first that I've heard of it. Do you use a bees wax candle, run the needle thru it or rub on fingers then rub on needle?

After you pull thread across bees wax and quilt with it, does the wax leave any type of residue on fabric?
