Thread conditioning
Just a little helpful idea you can use a dryer sheet, made by diferent companies sheet that you throw into your dryer with your laundry to soften and make smell nice. Just fold the sheet and pull your threaded needle through and your thread will glide through your material and smell nice too :) Hope this helps I hate to put anything on my thread, I don't know if it will cause the work to deteriorate over time I haven't ever used thread conditioner, may have to try it out sometime Following this thread Following this thread I have been doing that for a long time. I just get a box of sheets at the dollar store and cut them into smallish pieces and put them in a zip lock bag. That way I always have some handy :) Thank you for a really great idea :D what a cool idea, thank you so much Unfortunately, in my country we do not have such luxuries. Normally I use good white candle - cut into a small piece. I wax my threads on this piece before using. It helps to avoid thread tangles, and goes more smoothly in and out of the cloth.That's a very good idea. Thank you! amyleesf replied at 2013-3-9 10:57 static/image/common/back.gif

Sorry you don't have dryer sheets in your country .. but thanks for the candle idea, I didn't even think of that! Sounds nice but... I can't see the advantage of doing this :) I don't buy this kind of sheet but it's a good advice Thanks for the great tips, I will definately try both of them out!
