Silver Vinymo MBT Thread

$8.75

Description

Vinymo MBT is a unique, bonded, non-lubricated thread for leather working that works very well for both hand sewing and machine sewing.  It's sexy-twisty and it stays that way because the strands are tightly wound and internally bonded.  The thread pulls through the leather extremely smoothly and results in a strong stitch without requiring waxing (though, a light coat of wax is recommended) prior to hand stitching.

Sizing
Size 8:  Comparable to machine thread size 92
Size 3:  About halfway between machine thread size 138 and 207

Not a good gold color

While the thread is great I feel the color is a bit dark and isn’t quite as yellow as it should be.

Looks great

Used the size #3 thread while hand-stitching with a 4mm diamond chisel. I used both gold and silver to see how they turned out. Both had a nice metallic shine without looking cheap. There was a concern that it would detract from the fine leather goods we craft...but it only enhanced the look. I did not add any wax to the thread and it pulled nice and easy. There was some fraying for the first inch from the needle by the end of the long stitch, but that gets discarded either way. I do not think this is suitable for all applications, but for the right project, it is the perfect pairing. The local Fine Leather Crafters Guild was all impressed with the look of the wallet and the unwashed masses (non-leathercrafters) also liked the results.

I typically like to use 0,8mm thread with my 4mm spacing...this is a little thinner, but still resulted in a great look for my wallet. If you are on the fence, give it a try. The price for the 60 meter spool is very reasonable. Next project will be a black leather and gold stitching to stamp "Aints" on it and send to saints fans for a laugh. Saints win one superbowl and everyone claims they were always fans. I remember the 90's...nobody was a fan back then. Stop playin'!

Awesome Gold Color

I sewed this gold color by hand on black leather and it came out very rich, just wish they made it on No. 5, a little thicker would have looked even better, but still very happy, Go District Leather!!!
