Dianey Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Hello, I'm trying to make a wallet lately, and I've used yellow threads for hand stitching, my issue is that with waxed threads, especially the bright colored ones stain with the dirt from our hands overtime. I think that the cause of this is the wax on the thread that makes it such a dust magnet. Is there any thread that you recommend that doesn't stain? Or am I just wrong?

And might not help at all, but it won't cost much to try and see if helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
