Subject: [lace] RE: rayon thread
I've used rayon machine embroidery thread - both Isafil and Isacord. I
think I prefer the Isafil to the Isacord since it's got a smoother weave
and looks more like silk than the Isacord, where you can see the twist.
Both are OK to work with, but I found that I had to double hitch them to
stop them coming unwound from the bobbins. At that time I didn't know
about using the little tiny hair grips on bobbins.
I have some pretty colours and have made some pretty lace samples with
them.
I have used it as a gimp in a couple of cases for fun (decent results).
Cheers,
Helen in balmy Denver
