SPUN POLYESTER

Spun polyester threads are made by spinning or twisting together shorter lengths of polyester fibers. This is similar to the way cotton threads are made. These short fibers are then twisted together to produce a thread of the desired size. Spun polyester threads give the look of a cotton thread, but have more elasticity. Spun polyester is economical to produce and is usually a low-cost thread. We don't recommend spun polyester for quilting, as it is not as strong as corespun, filament, or trilobal polyester threads. For use in general sewing, light and heavy weight garments, spun polyester is an ideal thread for multiple applications where traditional staple spun polyester is required. It provides excellent seam strength and sewability across multiple operations. They look, feel, and sew like cotton. They are widely known as general purpose threads.
