24 Colors Waxed Thread, Leather Sewing, Hand Stitching Thread

Bought this for just starting to do leather work. Wanted colorful options but didn't want to break the bank. These are some great colors, wide variety and perfect for what I needed at the time. They tend to fray easily as the wax coating wears off as your sewing and it's kind of a pain if you're having to re-thread the needle. Also, the ends don't "melt" and stick together when you're finishing a knot. I realized this wasn't normal after buying a little bit better quality thread . With that being said, these were great for the price. They got me through my learning curve. They are nice and vibrant. I will keep them on hand for small/minor jobs. But if I'm going to do something larger/important I will definitely spend the money for something of a little better quality.

absolutely love it a great variety colors to choice from

Excellent, small amounts but good for using on different colors when needed and came in handy when finishing a project.

I am new to book binding (as you can see in my video - haha), so this selection provides a great variety of colors. They are already pre-waxed, which is nice. However, there is a lot of wax on them, and it's everywhere after threading the needle. I also don't think they are cotton threads, but nylon, which makes them very durable and strong, but if you're going for the natural look, they might not be for you. I am happy with them and would purchase them again!

This product is a must have great quality hold well easy to use it is durable price is in range knots well I will purchase again

Works well for bookbinding and leather stitching. My kids and I love all the colors. It is easy to tie off or burn/melt. I will definitely be ordering again!

I have been so happy with this purchase. I bind my own journals and love when I can choose a color to match the journal. Material is good quality and a gem to have so many color options.

I bought this for the selection of colors. I wanted to see what I liked so I could order larger spools of whatever color that may be. Mostly it's a bit of a mixed bag where the color and quality are concerned. Physically, the thread is strong from it's construction and size. But the size is also a bit of a problem. And the color is a bit deceptive. This is not a round thread, it is very flat. And it's braided, not twisted together. The flatness means it's very easy to do things like push a needle through to thread it for saddle-stitching. But it also means that when you are passing the second needle through a hole, it's easier to puncture the thread already running through it from the first needle. The solution I used is to pull the first thread very taught to kind of open the hole a bit and squish the first thread against the side of it, then you can pass the second needle through. And even then you still need to make sure everything worked out okay. The color you see, in person, is a bit false. On some of the rolls they look very strong and vibrant, off the roll they become considerably paler. Some rolls the color is solid, and some there are small shifts lighter or darker. Some rolls have inconsistently applied wax, which contributes some to these issues, but some rolls that are waxed well also have these problems. This thread will rub off dye here and there, I think due to the wax consistency, most noticeably if the dye is dark. Of course, dark colors getting some dark dye on them doesn't really matter, lighter dyes it matters more. I would say the best use of this is to prototype and to experiment with color. Then find a better thread for the actual final project, production, or gift. As a "tester" of sorts, it does fine. Just be mindful of its flaws. Also, unroll it and rub the wax into it to get a sense of the true color of the thread you want to use.

These wax threads are absolutely beautiful. They’re bright in colour. They give off happy feeling about them. There’s a lot of them in the packet. Undoing them for the first time was a bit hard to find the end and get it all happening and getting it ready but have some fun using it. It’s just absolutely fantastic to use with the special colours I have and I would recommend this to anyone.

Good variety of colours, just right for my crafting style.

Fantastic waxed cotton for hand sewing leather work. Great items
