Metallic sextant braided 4thread (4 strands) is a flexible, resistant braid.
Perfect for all needlework applications, traditional embroidery, counted stitch, cross-stitch on linen and silk and all other types of fabric.
This style of thread is used by top couturiers, embroiderers, knitters and weavers as it is ideal for art embroidery: the art of embroidering with pearls and sequins.
This embroidery thread is ideal for Boulogne stitch, which enables you to embroider motifs on a pouch or create paintings, while obtaining brilliant shades or contrasting colors. This is achieved by combining two threads of different diameters. In small, regular stitches, the thinner thread attaches the thicker thread to a fabric.
To achieve this stitch, we recommend combining this metallic embroidery thread 16 with a metallic braided thread 4.
