Un-Waxed Polyester Linen Blend Thread - Anyone ?

Recommended Posts

I need to pick up a new spool of 207 thread for my Consew 287R cylinder bed machine.. was about to order it in bonded nylon when I saw the following page advertising 'un-waxed polyester-linen blend' thread. The size is between a 138 and 207 - which is fine for me. The description says it's "ideal for sewing fine leathers". I'd imagine it would have that slightly more natural appearance to an all polyester thread. Has anyone here ever used it before? Your impressions? Thoughts?

Also - and this may be a dumb question.. but is there any reason this same thread could not be manually waxed up and used for hand stitching too?
