Bermuda Triangle of Thread

Have you ever had this happen?




It's a mystery... You start with two even strands of thread and somewhere in the stitching process, you loose thread.

Where does it go? There's no knots ore loops in the back. It's just gone!

As the title says, there must be a Bremuda Triangle for thread out there.


- thanks for reading!

  1. Wow! That's a significant amount of thread to lose! I've lost a little here and there, but I don't think I've lost that much.

  11. Happens here too and the funny thing is the stitching never looks off. There should be a bunch of uneven stitches somewhere or a big loop hanging out on the back but there never is.

  14. Wow! I see more comments, it happens to that many people?! I don't think it happens to me.. I will watch closer! LOL
    Maybe it's the way you stitch, do you make one single move? Like, you insert the needle to the back and to the front in one move? I make 2, I stitch with a q-snap and I like my fabric tight, I insert my needle to the back, pull the whole thread, then insert the needle to the front and pull the thread.
    I'm curious, if we stitch the same way. I really don't see that thread difference happening to me!
