Tips When stitching with metallic threads, be sure to use short lengths of thread to reduce abrasion as you pull the thread through your fabric. You may wish to use Thread Heaven or slightly moisten the thread to reduce twisting while stitching. It is also helpful to use the stab method when stitching with metallic threads rather than the "sewing" method.
