MonoPoly Thread represents a significant innovation in the realm of sewing threads, prized for its unique properties and versatility. Composed of 100% polyester mono-filament, this thread is  virtually invisible appearance when sewn. Owing to its clear colour and fine texture. Dubbed as an ‘invisible thread’, it is perfect for applications where seam visibility is undesirable, such as in appliqué work and quilting, especially for sashings in Quilt As You Go projects.

One of the standout qualities of MonoPoly Thread is its durability and longevity. Unlike some threads that may become brittle or discoloured over time, MonoPoly Thread maintains its integrity, ensuring that your projects retain their quality appearance even after extended use. Despite its strength and low stretch characteristics, the thread remains soft and pliable, contributing to smooth and seamless sewing experiences.

This Thread is designed for dual usage in both the top of the sewing machine and the bobbin. This dual functionality enhances its utility and makes it suitable for various sewing techniques and applications. When using MonoPoly Thread, it is essential to keep the net ‘jacket’ provided with the spool intact during sewing. This precaution helps control the thread’s dispensing speed and prevents it from unravelling prematurely, ensuring consistent and trouble-free stitching.

Whether you’re engaged in intricate appliqué work that demands invisible stitches or creating Quilt As You Go quilts where seamless blending of sashings is crucial, this Thread offers the reliability and performance needed to achieve professional-quality results. Its ability to blend seamlessly into fabrics while maintaining strength and durability makes it an indispensable choice for discerning sewists and quilters seeking to elevate their craft to new levels of precision and finesse.

Clover Fork Pins are a favourite amongst quilters for use in any patchwork and quilting projects. These pins stand out due to their fine, sharp design, resembling double-pronged hairpins. This unique structure makes them exceptionally effective in achieving accurate points and preventing seams from shifting during piecing and pinning.

One of the key advantages of these pins is their versatility. Besides patchwork, they are also invaluable for making bias tape. Their double prongs allow quilters to anchor both sides of the tape with a single pin. This streamlines the process and ensures stability during sewing. The bent end of the pins makes them easy to handle when inserting into and removing from fabric without snagging.

In each box, quilters receive 35 Fork Pins, ensuring an ample supply for various quilting projects. Their fine construction ensures they lie flat against the fabric, facilitating smooth sewing.

Tips for using Clover Fork Pins include aligning seams by butting them together and inserting the pin so that each prong secures opposite sides of the seam. This method ensures seams remain aligned during sewing, minimising fabric shifting and ensuring precise piercing.

For complex patterns like eight-point stars or pinwheels, Clover Fork Pins excel in holding multiple points together securely. By compressing the pin close to the seam, quilters can maintain alignment and prevent distortion, achieving crisp, professional-looking points in their quilting projects.

Clover Fork Pins are an essential tool for quilters who prioritise accuracy and efficiency in their craft. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned quilter, these pins contribute to smoother sewing processes and more polished quilt finishes, making them a valuable addition to any sewing kit.
