Kingstar Metallic Thread - an absolute winner!
Wow is all I can say about this metallic thread. I've been struggling on and off for the last few years (well Christmas time anyway) with some metallic threads I purchased when new to embroidery. Reluctant to throw them away, I kept persevering, but it always ended up in tears, no matter what I tried.
After seeing Kingstar metallic thread mentioned very favorably on a couple of different FB groups I decided it was time to give it a try. Only wish I'd heard about it a long time ago - what a joy it is - ran through my machine so smoothly with no twisting, shredding or breakage whatsoever and didn't even have to switch to another needle - just kept going with my 75/11 universal one. I'm completely converted now and my other metallics will be headed for the bin - it'll be Kingstar from now on. One very happy embroiderer - looking forward to stitching many more fsl christmas decorations.
This thread is more expensive than my other metallics - but worth every penny as far as I'm concerned. No wasted time, wasted thread, ruined projects or hair-pulling. If I could give more stars - I certainly would!
