The Fil à Gant Fil Au Chinois, offered by Maison Sajou, is a very fine, regular, and strong glazed cotton thread, traditionally used for glove sewing. Its fineness and strength make it particularly appreciated today for sewing and embroidery work that requires precision and discretion.
Made in France, this 100% cotton thread has a glazed finish that gives it a smooth surface and facilitates its passage through the fabric. It withstands repeated handling well while allowing for fine and precise stitches.
Ideal for Lunéville embroidery
The Fil à Gant is particularly suitable for Lunéville crochet beading embroidery. It can be used to thread and work with beads, sequins, and other small embroidery supplies, while remaining very discreet in the work.
Its fineness allows for highlighting the embroidered elements without weighing down the work, while its strength is suitable for repeated passes of the crochet and the tension exerted on the thread.
It naturally finds its place in art embroidery and haute couture embroidery work, especially for projects made with beads and sequins.
Other uses
The Fil à Gant can also be used for fine hand sewing, appliqué, patchwork, English Paper Piecing, as well as some delicate tasks such as repairing old lace.
