Sewing Threads are amazing.

2022 nov 15 // Work and life in general has kept me crazy busy and I’ve had little time for my hobbies. I’m working towards reclaiming my creative routines, and am sure everything will eventually return to my desired level of ”normality”.

Last week though, while my husband was away on a business trip for 5 days, I got around to collage a couple of frames I recently bought at a local 2nd hand store.

They turned out like this:

I liked how they turned out and so they got to move up on the livingroom wall

Last sunday a friend and I visited an outdoors flea market in the Stockholm city center, there I spotted a fairly large and old looking box filled with threads. Vintage sewing threads wrapped around paper… not sure what it’s called, thread cards perhaps?

So I picked three of these cards and asked for the price, and he quickly responded 40 SEK for the whole lot! (that’s like €4 or $4). But the box was too big AND falling apart, AND I wasn’t all that interested in the threads - I wanted the cards 😄 Of course I bought the whole box and today I rummaged through the whole thing, and now the thread cards are nearly gathered in an old tin sitting in my work space:

Finally I’ll mention that I never got back into my planner project… I haven’t given up on it entirely, but continue to print my daily notes and glue them to the planner pages. But I haven’t had the time or energy to collage those pages.

I want to try this 12 months planner project AGAIN, from 1st of January. Next time though to take in consideration the hectic Autumn with its ridiculously short days (currently the sunset is at 3:25 PM and we have on average 2 hours of sunlight per day). I still haven’t figured out how next year’s project will look, but I’m leaning towards a planner & commonplace book combination, with more focus on text and less on collage… ah, we’ll see 😄

Six tips on how to store and maintain Au Chinois sewing threads

Proper storage and maintenance of sewing thread can help to ensure its longevity and quality, and this is especially true for high-quality threads like Au Chinois. 

Sewing threads do not take up much space, making it easy to store in boxes and put away. You can use a sewing thread of your choice whenever you have the requirement. However, because they are easy to store, there is a chance that one might not store them in the right conditions. This can lead to damaging these threads or reducing their longevity while you use them for various purposes. 

The Significance of Au Chinois Sewing Threads

Au Chinois is a brand of high-quality sewing thread that originated in France in 1746. The brand is known for producing premium quality sewing threads made from the finest Egyptian cotton, which are ideal for hand-sewing and embroidery. 

Au Chinois sewing threads come in a variety of colors and thicknesses, from fine silk threads to heavier linen threads, and are designed for use with different types of fabrics and sewing techniques. The threads are known for their strength, durability, and resistance to fraying and breaking, making them a popular choice among professional tailors, dressmakers, and embroiderers. 

Six tips on storing and maintaining an Au Chinois Sewing Thread

Here are some tips on how to properly store and maintain Au Chinois sewing thread: 

1.      Store the thread in a cool, dry place: Direct sunlight and high humidity can damage thread over time, so it's important to store your Au Chinois thread in a dry and cool, keeping away from direct sunlight and moisture. 

2.      Keep the thread away from dust and dirt: Thread can pick up dust and dirt, which can weaken the fibers over time. To keep your Au Chinois thread clean, store it in a sealed container or drawer. 

3.      Avoid exposing the thread to extreme temperatures: Extreme heat or cold can damage thread, so avoid storing your Au Chinois thread in areas that experience extreme temperatures. 

4.      Use thread holders or spools to organize the thread: Keeping your thread organized can help prevent tangling and breakage. Consider using thread holders or spools to keep your Au Chinois thread neatly organized and easy to access. 

5.      Keep the thread away from chemicals: Certain chemicals, such as bleach and chlorine, can weaken thread fibers. To protect your Au Chinois thread, avoid storing it near any chemicals that could potentially damage it. 

6.      Replace thread that is showing signs of wear or damage: Over time, even high-quality thread like Au Chinois can become weakened or damaged. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it's best to replace the thread to ensure the longevity and quality of your sewing projects. 

By following these tips, you can help to ensure that your Au Chinois sewing thread stays in good condition and continues to perform well for all of your sewing projects. You may browse through our range of Au Chinois Sewing Threads and pick the ones most suited to your sewing needs.
