I use #69 thread on wallet interiors that are up to 4 ounces thickness. I move up to #92 thread for 5 to 8 ounces. I use #138 thread for 8 to 10 ounces.

As a reference, #69 thread has a breaking strength of 11 pounds. Number 92 has about 15 pounds strength and #138 has 22 pounds test. I usually sew wallet interiors with #69 and combine them to the back with #92.

Thanks! What are some good resources for sourcing thread in a variety of colors? I might not be looking in the right places since most places I'm looking only have 69 and 138 but no 92.

I buy most of my thread here. It is sold in matching colors across multiple sizes. For instance, straw color matches from #69 through #346. They stock 69, 92, 138, 207 and 277 in most primary colors and several shades of brown.
